Buff Boulders - HNF Suggest change

This is a sandstone boulder field near Saint Croix, Indiana. Some choss and low-quality sandstone, but there are quite a few higher quality and fun routes. The area is still developing, so if you have the technical know-how, come on down with your ladders and harnesses. Please make sure you are uploading into the right areas with the right pictures. Hopefully this can get more Indiana climbers down south.

This is just one of the many spots in Hoosier National Forest. The Hoosier Hidden Hikes guidebook on Amazon will give you some pins to other new areas.

NOTE: Parking is tricky down here. Please make sure you are at the designated parking area. You WILL be towed if you park elsewhere. (author note - it's a $200 tow as well... have cash prepared if you want to risk it lol...)

Getting There Suggest change
