Access Issue: Display Discover Pass, do not block gates, and park off the road Details

DNR wants to pass on a friendly reminder to display your Discover Pass, not block any gates, and park well off the road to prevent getting ticketed or towed. Access Fund and Washington Climbers Coalition continue to partner with DNR on stewardship and management of the Gold Bar Boulders and their access sites. Learn more about getting outdoors on DNR-managed lands on our website: dnr.wa.gov/go

Serene Boulders

Several granite boulders sitting around Highway 2 east of Gold Bar. The rock quality is immaculate and the rocks are some of the largest in the area. Western Washington's earliest bouldering history begins here.

Getting There

If you are headed east on Route 2, you'll find a large pullout 2.3 miles from the intersection of Reiter road and Route 2. Another easy way to think about it is you'll see mile marker 32 on the right side of the road just a bit after Zeke's Drive-In. You cannot miss the Camp Serene Boulder now that the area has been clear-cut.
