Description

This is a pretty popular bouldering spot at High Cliff. It is 15 ft of quality vertical climbs.

It faces the sun in the morning so it is a good spot to boulder in the winter because the snow will melt.

Sit starts are usually always hard in this area (but not impossible).

The climbs range from V0 to about V2. But they are all fun with precise footwork needed. Top outs are also possible but can be challenging because of all the choss at the top.

Getting There

Once you get to the "T" intersection at the top of the hill, take a left. You will see the climbs on your left on the far end of the quarry. Park in the first parking lot on your left. Take the trail on the left side of the lot and walk this until it meets up with the MAIN trail (it will be gravel). Take a left and you will walk into the quarry. The climbs will be on your right.
