Description Suggest change

Start in the Mcafee's Knob parking lot and take the AT headed towards Dragon's Tooth (not the Dragons Tooth trail).

The Dragon Boulders are a series of protruding, overhanging blades that are a short two minute hike up from the parking lot. These boulders offer several quality boulder problems to choose from and are a great destination if you dont want to make the hike to the top of the Knob. These blades are nice to include for your Roadside circuit and the area is a bit quieter (less traffic/hiker distractions). The Dragons are of average height, being not too short and not too tall. Local developers/crushers Truc and Adam climbed most of these lines years ago. Sorry about the placeholder names guys, I didn't know what you all named them... Just shoot me a message and fill me in if you want them changed!
