Description
This is a massive boulder found next to the seasonal stream. Slightly higher on the hillside there is another large boulder known as the "Hangman Boulder".
This area tends to stay pretty humid and moist, especially during leaf-season. The gully is protected from the wind, and the canopy extinguishes the sunlight quickly.
Fall Season and Spring Season are the best times to visit this boulder, when the air is more dry and there are less mosquitoes.

Getting There
Hike up the logging trail past the "Font Boulder". Keep up the hill and bare right down the logging trail. Venture off the logging trail diagonally at a rock pile and over the hillcrest. Once here the "Hangman Boulder" will become visible. Head down the hill on the left-side of this boulder before heading down towards the stream and the "Skink, Skank, Skunk" Boulder.
