Description Suggest change

The Holy Cross Boulder is home to the first double digit problem in The Arena. Nice rock, a nice traverse, and a technical topout make for a great problem for the grade.

Getting There Suggest change

Take Little Park Road heading towards the Colorado National Monument approximately 3 miles. Park at the Lunch Loop trailhead on the left, just after the last house on Little Park Rd. Hike down the Holy Cross Trail, then take a right at the first fork. The trail sign will read Preup to Holy Cross, go right. This will take you to a ridge overlooking Upper & Lower Holy Cross Trail. You're within 1/4 mile of the boulders.

Dropping into the right side (east, or the side that faces Little Park Road) will put you in the vicinity of the West Side Boulders, where the Holy Cross Boulder and Joe's Simulator Boulder are.

Approach time is 20 minutes.

See the beta map photo for directions.
