Description
One of the first boulders you encounter when approaching from Puppy Dome, just uphill (North) of the Kitty Boulder.
Getting There
From the Puppy Boulders, cross the river upstream from the rock pool, and head Southwest skirting around the base of Kitty Dome. After a few minutes the Kitty boulders will become visible just beyond a large clearing. Kitty Arête will likely be the first problem you’ll notice, the Golden Face Boulder is just to the right.
