Description Suggest change

This boulder is a mostly square and vertical sided boulder with a very dark and hard varnish on the majority of the exposed rock. It stands alone roughly 100 yards south of the main trail to Black Velvet Canyon approximately 15-20 minutes walking distance from the black velvet parking lot.

Getting There Suggest change

Walk West from the Black Velvet Canyon parking area for roughly a half mile (10-20 minutes depending on your speed). To your south will be the boulder standing proud and alone in a very large area of nothing but desert. It's hard to miss. It can be seen from many of the climbs in Black Velvet and is often passed by parties descending the walk off gully on their way back to the parking area.

A more or less direct trail is present in and along a wash and cairns exist but while walking towards it from the parking lot these features can be hard to spot.
