Description
You will know you have reached the Tier 3 cluster when you find yourself in a boulder squeeze pass that you have to take your pads off to get through. Trust me, its worth it! Once you've squeezed through, you will enter into an amphitheater of very large boulders and have arrived. The landings for these boulder problems are more uneven and require more pads.
Changing corners is a fantastic V5 that will make you think. The potential for more boulders is endless and this area will benefit from more traffic! There are more boulders up the hill as well as down left. A simple walk and you will find many more routes waiting to be climbed.
Routes are re-discovered every day and it is advised to bring a wire brush to scrub some lichen if you see a line that is inspiring! We have reached out to local climbers about potential FA's in the past but currently have little information. Route names are temporary and please leave a comment if you have knowledge about existing names and first ascentionists. The bouldering potential here is endless and more people should come out and climb on these fantastic blocks!
Getting There
Another 3-5 minutes up the hill from the tier 2 cluster is a large collection of boulders, many of which are waiting to be climbed. Walk up and right from the Crescent Moon boulder and you will see the large boulders up the hill. (NOTE: I'm not too sure you can see the Tier 3 boulders from Crescent Moon or anywhere close. R Hall NH Admin.)
Approach - Walk through Tier 2 boulders until you hit the cliff-wall behind. Walk up along this on the right until it ends and a wide ledge allows one to walk back to the left. In a short while (100-200?? ft ) you should see the "Slot # 1 Entrance / "Boulder Squeeze" to the Tier 3 boulders. See sketch Map.
The boulder squeeze pass is the easiest entry into the boulder field without having to walk through a very large talus field that is difficult.
