| | Private Property - Access Sensitive MORE INFO >>>
The cliff band is on private property and has recently changed hands, which created some potential access issues. There are a number of "No Trespassing" signs on the land.
The owner of the property is alright with climbers being there. However, the "No Trespassing" signs will stay up, and are only there to "protect himself."
The landowner has also said that he is very pleased with what he's found out about the climbers and the etiquette of the area. He researched it online and found that we've always been very respectful of our privilege to climb there and that we value that privilege greatly.
With that being said, Bozoo is fair game for climbing. AS ALWAYS: BE RESPECTFUL OF THE PROPERTY AND THE AREA. NOT DOING SO COULD RESULT IN ITS PERMANENT CLOSURE.
This information is a public crowdsourcing effort between the Access Fund,
and Mountain Project.
You should confirm closures, restrictions, and/or related dates.

Nice problems all around on this boulder.
Description Another south facing boulder with a few hard lines on it. A bit hard to find and not too obvious until you are up on it. Climbed by Shawn McCauley and Ed Lyman early 2000's.
Getting There From Bozoo Roof walk up the hill a couple hundred yards and a bit to the left. It is a wide low-looking boulder with a overhanging front face. There are several great lines on this boulder.

| I put up one problem on this boulder in 2000 that had an envelope slot you went to after a SDS, had a weird pinky catch water groove/crack you popped to at the lip. topping out was the hardest part. I called it Special ED. |

| Nice photo Jay. The problem you call F. "Special ED Left" is what I called Special ED. I never did the right variation letter G because of the death stump factor at the heinous mantle its hard and mental. I used to call it the "mental mantle" but like I said I never did it. The stump is a factor on "F. Special ED Orginal" but a bit safer than "mental mantle" I felt. It always looked like that stump seemed rotten enough to remove or shove over but i couldn't move it.
Thanks

| Do you have anything else for me on this boulder? Also, check out the Entryway section and comment that area up, lots of more detail in there now, but still many placeholder names. |
