Description

This remote area has an amazing view of Salt Springs Reservoir and Calaveras Dome. Besides Unicorn Boulder, there are a number of other boulders that may be interesting to climb. The rock quality is a beautiful white granite that may well be better than the Tanglefoot Boulders, though the quantity, access, and landings might not be quite as good.

Park at the turnout at (38.510395, -120.217581). The dirt road to get here is not on Google Maps, but you can use satellite view to find the way here from Cole Creek Campground or Tanglefoot Boulders.
