Description
Yate's Boulder:
continue a few yards past the Autumn Boulder and the Jet Boulder, past the massive fallen hollow tree, and look deep into the forest to your left. you will see a small unassuming boulder face (that you may otherwise second guess or walk past). this is the Tuna Boulder.
Once at the Tuna Boulder, walk to the right (parallel to the trail) and you will see the Yate's Boulder.
The "Yate's Arete" sit starts on the obvious massive ledge on the only arete on the boulder. follow up the short arete and top out accordingly.

Tuna Boulder:
The Tuna Boulder is a smaller boulder, but the lines are fun and its length allows for 5 fun problems with the possibility for more.
