Details
MLC staff are asking people not to boulder here until further notice. Discussions are taking place in order to establish both bouldering and mountain biking as recognized activities at Mtn. Lake. MLC request a ban on bouldering until a decision has been made.
Description
Mountain Lake is a small bouldering area that has handful of decent problems. Most of the climbing is on the far side of the lake (opposite from the resort), but there is certainly more to find in the area. A cool place to explore or get some good views from Bald Knob.
Getting There
From Blacksburg take 460 North , turn right off of 460 onto either 700, or 613. Both take you straight to the resort. Drive past the resort on the left side of the lake and park on the right side of the road in a small gravel lot.
Cost of 3$ to park, though I have heard of some no-charge parking in other locations.
