Description

This is a small bouldering area right off the road in Deer Creek Canyon. It offers a few solid V0-V3 problems, mostly overhanging, including a spicy topout and many traverse variations. Beware loose rocks, as this location is underdeveloped. Some of the more obvious holds are chalked up. This is a good locals destination for a quick session after work.

If you want to get some sport, head up the canyon further to the recently bolted Urban Alpine Crag.

Getting There

From C-470 and Kipling, head south on Kipling and turn right onto Ute Ave where Kipling terminates. Ute will merge into Deer Creek Canyon Road. Continue past a substation on the right, S. Valley Road on right, and Grizzly Drive on your left. After the road takes a noticeably sharp left followed by a slight right, the bouldering location can be seen on the North side of the road. It is at the bottom of a rock outcrop, somewhat obscured by a large cottonwood. You can park on the North side of the road, and walk 40 foot to the rock.
