Description
Small boulder located in a snow runoff area of the mountain, easily accessible from both ends of the walking trail and is somewhat noticeable. It is also somewhat enshrouded in brush, the boulder itself is pretty mossy.
Getting There
Park in blackridge reservoir parking area, easiest to start walking on the trails to reach the top of the mountain. Follow the trail for about 15-20 min (depending on how fast you are) and you should be able to see smaller boulders near the good climbing one. I've found that the map locations are fairly precise but the GPS location pulled from google is as follows: 40°28'40.9"N 112°01'42.2"W
This particular boulder is in the wash/runoff/valley that leads straight down the mountain to the giant circular water tank.
