Description Suggest change

The Road Boulder is one of the most accessible boulders in New Joe's and hosts around 7 major problems. Typical of New Joe's it's fairly clean sandstone with interesting features. Flat landing areas combined with some mildly steep faces make for excellent bouldering. The problems here are excellent for a solid warm up.

There is a splitter that runs vertically through the middle, follow this crack after you top out (for problems on the west and south sides) and you find a nice easy down climb along a juggy hand crack.

More information can be found in Isaac Caldiero's guidebook to Joe's Valley.

Getting There Suggest change

Starting at the big rock pile which marks the main road to enter New Joe's, Hike around 3/4 of a mile along the main road like you are heading to the closet or chip and dale. The boulder is directly on the trail on the right hand side.

You can drive most of the way along the dirt road.

If you are hiking from the other parking area, It is about a hundred yards south of Chip and Dale.
