Blackridge Boulders

Utah > W Desert > Oquirrh Mountains > Blackridge Boulders

Description

Two really nice boulders right off the trail about half-way up Blackridge/Diamondback loop if taken clockwise from the bottom. Features nice slab and slightly overhung problems. Currently only established V0-V2s, but potential for higher grade problems.

Getting There

Start on the Blackridge trail. Take a left once it splits, follow for about 10-15 minutes. Take a right onto Diamondback when it splits again, follow another 10 or so minutes until you come across a large boulder just 5-10 feet off the trail to the South. Hard to miss. Second boulder is another few hundred feet past that Southward.
