Description

Nice bouldering on the West/South hillsides next to Owl Rock. Mostly moderates and mostly good landings. Beware of friable holds that may still exist; this area has been very recently developed. Bouldering here during the winter is often done in t-shirts.

Getting There

Follow the main approach trail and look for the fork roughly halfway up the hill. Go right to find the Owl Boulders.
