Description

Mostly shady granite boulders a short walk up or down hill from Ice House rd.

Completely secluded, most problems have been established in the last 2 years.

While the problems may be mossy at times, the rock is a high quality granite, that makes for fun bouldering.

Getting There

If driving east on highway 50, turn left onto Ice House Rd after passing signs for Fresh Pond. Drive Ice House Rd for about 15 miles, watch for an easy to miss right hand turn to stay on Ice House Rd. Follow this rd to Ice House Reservoir. As you near the North Wind campground there will be pullouts on both sides of the road accessing various boulders. Most are visible from these pullouts.

There are also a few high quality boulders further down the lake, to access these, continue past the summer camp, and the Strawberry point campground, the paved road continues past the campground now. Follow this road to its termination to reach Silver Fork Creek and the Iceberg Boulder.
