Description

In close proximity to some of the other boulders like "Quartz Face" and "Arrowhead" is a cool block with a neat roof feature. When all is said and done, there are probably about 6 unique lines on the boulder.

Getting There

The best way to reach this boulder is via the approach for "The Arrowhead". Once you are facing the arrowhead feature, head directly past the boulder, uphill, and trend slightly left. There will be a number of smaller boulders along the hillside. As it begins to flatten out slightly, you should see a ~10-11 foot tall boulder with a mini-roof on the left side (facing away). The Quartz Face is in sight about 30 meters to the right if approaching from this direction.

It can also be reached from the approach of "The Barrel". Make a right to stay on the logging path, and go up the steep hill. At the top of the hill, cut left into the woods roughly perpendicular to the trail. The pin should be accurate.
