Description

One of the most inspiring natural features I've ever bouldered. A true, continuously horizontal roof for over 25ft until the lip. Brilliant golden sandstone with massive, ridiculously awesome huecos for the last 12ft. You could park seven cars under this roof and none would get wet in the rain. Bring your entire crew to for spotting and all the foam you can muster.

Getting There

Park at the Tower Tunnel overlook trail and link onto the prospectors trail from there (do yourself a favor and hike on down to check out the view if you have a spare moment). Walk on down the Prospectors Trail for two more minutes and you will walk under this huge roof.
