Description
While only a small cluster, the rock is of the utmost quality! About a dozen classics from V0-V10, you could spend your whole day in this small area.
Getting There
Park at the gasline entrance. Hike down the gasline road for ~1/3 mile. When the road splits to the right, hike left into the small clearing. You will see an old logging trail. Only a few steps into the logging trail, follow the orange ribbons left down a faint trail for about 30 yards to the Sharp Shooter boulder. Continue past Sharp Shooter about another 30 yards to find the Subtle boulder.
