Description

The Black Wall is a nice large granite boulder right near the Saddle boulder. There are quite a few enjoyable problems on this boulder, ranging in grades from V0 to V11. The northeast side of the boulder can have a wet/swampy landing during the Spring/Summer depending on weather. Unnamed problem numbers refer to the "Bouldering Lake Tahoe" guidebook.
