Description

Small cave just down hill from Luniz that houses namesake boulder.

Getting There

Park at Water Tank. Go south on Desert Classic trail, then hang a right onto Secret Trail (not marked). At intersection with Old Man Trail, go left/south and stay on Secret trail. Belly of the Beast boulder is just up a faint wash. If you have made it to the Politics/Animal House boulder, then you have gone too far. Back track 100 yards and go up the wash. Approach take 15-20 minutes.
