Description Suggest change

In theory there are three boulders here. In reality, there is one actual boulder and two tiny chest height boulders. You'll have more fun if you stick to the big one. Grippy, coarse granite and dries very fast. Most of the business is at the bottom, with easy top-outs. The tree on the north face is now gone.

The Big Boulder:
The side facing the road has harder problems, while the side facing into the forest has easier problems. Downclimb to descend.

Getting There Suggest change

The boulder is 200 meters west of the Intersection between Burnaby Mountain Parkway & Gagliardi Way. The closest parking is on a gravel pull out 900 meters northwest of the boulder next to the Trans Canada Trail. Park here, and walk the path that parallels the road back up the way you came. The main boulder will be on your left just inside the forest edge. Other "boulders" exist farther into the forest, but are really too small to have any climbing on them.
