Description
A large boulder with a prominent low angle face facing the road and a rounded steep arete with a crack reaching halfway to the top.
Getting There
Follow a rough drainage uphill from the Elf's Hat. This boulder lies left and downhill of the largest formation at the top of the hill, which serves as a good landmark to keep on your right as you walk up the hill.
