Description

There are two climbs located on large bouders or small cliffbands up on the hillside southeast of Loveland. The formations are easily seen from the main highway, near the junction where the road turns off to Cottonwood. Look up and N. and you will see the formations.

Getting There

Park on the main road from where the formations are visible, and start hiking north, across the desert and then up the hillside to the largest formations.
