Description Suggest change

A boulder with routes and eliminates.

It's easy to notice from the path since the rock is lighter in color than most around it. In the growing season bright green vines on the edge highlight it even more.

Classics include: The Slab - V0.

There are obvious steep, short sit down start problems on the left side of the boulder.

There are five major lines up to V8, plus variations.

Getting There Suggest change

If you enter Wissahickon Bike Trail from Ridge Ave, this is the third distinct "areas"/boulders within a half mile. It's just upstream/north/downhill from 100 Steps.
