Description

This small boulder is mostly notable for its incredible quartz banding that forms some incredible swirls. It's fairly short and offers the possibility of a couple easy straight up problems or a slightly harder, but contrived, traverse. Amazing rock quality though!

Getting There

From the staircase, walk west for approximately 80 yards to reach this boulder. The problems can be found on its northwest face. This is the first larger boulder you come to when walking west from the staircase.
