Description
Brilliant cliff-like overhang of Morgan Falls, easily the most aesthetic feature of the whole crag. The left side features shelfed, progressive overhang that gives a nice mix of hold content. Jugs, slopers, 40mm to 4/6mm crimps are all usable on this face and are used in the pair of classic lines Nova and Supernova. This boulder would love some additional cleaning and repeats to really solidify the routes!
Getting There
First boulder of the trail. Directly after the steps from the boat shack, walk until you see a wooden arch about 30 feet into the trail. Walk 20 more feet until a slight bend in the path. Look up the hill on your right. It can be hard to see the cliff-face from the bottom (especially in the spring and summer), but houses will likely be visible. Hiking up the hill is a bit of a struggle, but for 200 feet of walking there's not much to complain about. The key feature to look for is a dried up creek path. It leads up and to the left side where you'll have fun finding your own way through the light foliage and eventually come onto the landing of the Constellation boulder. It is the leftmost overhang in this area, the WHOLE right side is largely choss and you can do without them entirely.
