Access Issue: Climbing permitted, but keep a low profile
Details
Lou Cerutti adds: On our way in yesterday we were stopped by a quarry employee who initially tried to deter us from entering adding that we were on private property and that they never catch the climbers they see up there. After a friendly chat he decided to let us go. I suggested I'd be happy to speak with the owner and left him my phone number. I never heard back but we may want to add some info about keeping a low profile there.
Location
Just below and left of the Cougar Face.
Description
This is the best boulder on the hillside. It starts on a rail with good holds and ends slightly right. There are several variations. The original route went straight up and was V4. A hold broke making for a slightly different finish and bringing the grade down a bit. Overall a beautiful, steep boulder problem on positive holds!
Protection
One pad and a spotter. Flat landing.
