Description Suggest change

The Den

is the last section of exposed rock which forms boulder like formations. A variety a problems offer relatively good landing zones for pads and a diversity of line styles.

Bouldering Problems are roughly 15 ft tall and provide a diversity from easy to difficult (range from V easy to V5).

Ratings: While easier climbs are given a rating number representing the problem to be no harder than the rating represented, lines rated V0 (5.10) and up are given a specific max crux rating. This should help you plan your visit and navigate your way along the bluff while using Mountain Project. See the scale below to help understand route difficult conversion.

Please provide feedback using your MP App. Star rating and rate difficulty feedback helps the next visitors use the app.

Getting There Suggest change

Easiest approach is to follow the Boulder Ridge Trail, north out of the camp site loop, paralleling the cliff to the north end of the cliff exposure. The trail turns right around the end boulders and into The Den. Pick your poison...
