Description Suggest change

Popular hiking spot in Downtown Coeur d’Alene along the lake. There are plenty of cliffs to jump off into the water, but there are also several good boulders and a couple of sport routes to enjoy. Great place to stop by if you are visiting CDA or are a local looking for some bouldering. Most of the climbs have short approaches and good landings.

**FA**  Since there is no guidebook for this area the info regarding FA's is rather small. If you have climbed a route earlier and would like something changed (line, name, etc) we will happily do it.

Getting There Suggest change

Tubbs Hill is located in downtown Coeur d' Alene right across from the McEuen Park. There's free parking at the back entrance or lots or parking out front, and very easy walking from downtown. All areas have detailed instructions for how to get to each and every boulder. All we ask is that you stay on the official trails, and keep the erosion to a minimum.
