Access Issue: Private Property Details

Although this area is private property, a general rule of thumb in michigan is that undeveloped, wild spaces are open for public recreation UNLESS they are posted no trespassing. Michigan actually has a law called the Recreational Land Use Act that encourages private landowners to allow public recreation. This area has no "no trespassing" signs or fences so it seems ok but please practice leave no trace and clean chalk and tic marks off the boulder when you're finished.

Description

Great Location that has serious potential for bouldering. One notable boulder that can have 5-6 routes on it and is approximately 14 feet tall and other boulders in the area that also have potential. Great place to stop on a road trip and explore.

Getting There

Park on the side of the road on highway 41 near the BFR (Big Friendly Rock). You might need to walk past a tree line and up a semi steep hill to get under the power lines which is where all the trees are cleared and all the boulders will be located. Another method is to walk over to the ORV trail and walk past the tree line and into the area. The "approach" takes about 30 seconds from the side of the road when you park making it a perfect pit stop for a quick bouldering session.
