Climber on Escape Hatch.

Description 

This is arguably the tallest and most aesthetic boulder in the area. Located just off the trail at the edge of the aspens, this is the huge boulder with the crazy 45-50 degree overhang on one side.


Getting There 

Use the bike trail, but don't get run over.
