Description Suggest change

This boulder has long been at the heart of the RMNP bouldering scene since its inception. Packed with hard problems from V8 to V14, it is a popular first stop for visitors. Problems are found all along the east and west faces making it feasible at different times of day.

Getting There Suggest change

The best landmark is the huge Skyscraper Boulder, a 30+ foot boulder with a vertical east face. The Centaur Boulder is just east of this on the very edge of the talus slope on the south side of the canyon. It is one of the larger boulders in Lower Chaos.
