Description Suggest change

The first face you come to on this boulder is home to a classic in the Walkers Branch area: Blazing Saddles. Going left of this face will take you to a technical slab problem, and going right will take you to another face of the boulder. This face is home to more Foxtown classics like Twin Pistons and Smash. There is typically a ladder around here for all of your brushing needs, but the rock stays pretty clean in this area. The down climb for these problems is typically to climb down the isle on the back side of this boulder. 

Getting There Suggest change
