Description

Small cave like area just at the top of the gully created by two boulders leaning together.

Getting There

From the parking area (https://goo.gl/maps/uwL6a9mrfsREsjjEA), hike across the road towards the guard rail past where the "administrative parking" is. A few feet onto the trail next to the guard rail turn and switchback down into the gully. The Insurrection Boulder is just at the bottom.

Route #15 on the Rushmore Crack Boulder Circuit
