Description
At the junction of the Sisters and Hidden Fawn Trails is a small gathering of boulders, and the bulk of the climbing appears to be on just two of them. The Elephant Boulder, so named because it looks like a pachyderm from just about any angle, hosts several quality problems. Across from it is another boulder I have been calling the Arch Boulder, so named for the obvious feature arching over to the next nearest rock. At least one fun, steep problem is on the Arch.
This is a very worthwhile place to stop and unfurl the pads.
