Description Suggest change

The Ranger Rick Boulder is great. Steep, proud, and full of progressively better jugs as you get to the top. The landing is good too, just be sure to bring two pads since there is an uneven part that benefits from having a second crashpad/couch /refrigerator/elk saddle.

Ranger Rick has an amazing V1 standstart and a super soft V4 low start. The low is probably the easiest V4 in GHSP so if you're looking for the place to break through to the next grade stop on by (itÂ’s just one move into the V1).

Getting There Suggest change

Follow the Split Rock Trail trail that starts between the two large Oak trees (behind the little green box) at the park office. The trail will lead you directly to the Periscope Boulder.The Ranger Rick Boulder is to the right and slightly back-set from Periscope.
