Buzzard Boulders Climbing

Buzzard Boulders are South-facing boulders hidden in plain sight right off Gold Camp Road. The area is far enough back that one can find solitude. A bike along the flat Gold Camp Road cuts the commute to 15 minutes. Walking will take around 45 minutes. The quality of the stone is generally good, is characterized by small chickenheads, patina, and crack, and differs distinctly from the variable rock down canyon. If you are lucky, you may see turkey vultures that like to frequent the area. The boulders tend to be on the lowball side, about 8-10 feet high, but there are a few that have great highball potential, and most of the landings are superb. There exists potential for ~50-75 problems in a small concentration of land. There is evidence that the area has been frequented by dirt bikers and also hooligans that like to dump their trash. This trash is only found in a small portion of the upper area. If you're going up there, you may consider bringing a small bag to collect trash to help beautify this area a bit. As always, any information as to the names, grades, and FAs is always appreciated.
