Description

Bentonite Mine has free standing boulders scattered throughout a wide open area. They are very accessible from the road. The rock quality is decent overall, the problems are slightly mossy and sandy. Problems need some brushing, some holds are pretty flaky and can break (be careful).

If anyone has climbed these problems before, I am happy to change first ascents!

Getting There

Continue past the Little Park Road Main Trailhead for 0.7 miles, parking is on the right. A large brown sign says Little Park Road Bentonite Site with a metal gate. Continue past gate, and the boulders are located close to the road.
