Description Suggest change

Do you want to experience every style of climbing under the sun on a singular boulder? Look no further. The Barrel Boulder hosts everything from a roof crack, to techy slab, to a stemming scoop, a roof compression problem, lip traverses, a chimney, and an overhung prow. That's right, this is all on the same boulder duo.

There still remains at minimum 5 great projects yet to see first ascents.

Getting There Suggest change

From the parking area, follow the main trail for about 6-7 minutes where the deforested cut will bend right and up a steep hill. Follow up the hill along the path for a minute, and then stay left to head down a fairly steep hill. You should see the boulders to the left at the bottom of the hill.
