Description 

Main face is west facing. Nicely overhanging for 10ft then goes vertical. Quality routes on the South Face (overhanging and vertical) as well. Solid rock with fun various features.

Most of the landings are safe, some obstacles are around. My experience tells me most will want a pad or two.

Getting There 

Away from common areas. Head to Jim's Throne, keep walking the trail past Jim's Throne and walk past/through Glens Roof Area, Craggy Pines Area, The Pulpit/Binocular Rocks Area and keep on going (no trail past The Pulpit) bushwhacking it until you run into this Buddha Boulder about -/+ 2mins walk past The Pulpit.

Trail to possibly come soon.
