Climbing Near Willits, California

Cool roof/ shallow water boulders. Downstream from deadmans rocks. Use the same approach but walk down the rocky beach to the giant boulders.

This is the second "developed" bouldering beach along 162 (after the Hideout). There aren't a ton of problems, but there are a few short sport climbs, a short crack lead, and a few boulders. The real shining gem of the beach is the famous Electric Eel boulder. 1.3 miles before the Dos Rios Bridge. Abnormally large pullout on the left with a huge tree. Take the westernmost trail down towards the boulders.

Huge, beautiful mossed over rock with a few cleaner offerings down low. The rock is usually accessed in the summer by wading across crystal clear water, though it can be accessed from walking over from the bridge (much longer). Chris Summit and the locals have put up some pretty fun routes. If you're around, it's definitely worth a stop. Wade across the river in the summer or fall or walk in from the bridge.
