Description

This boulder is visible from the road. The Whittier Ski Club used to run their opperation from this turn out. The foundation to the tow rope building is still visible. The far right arete is safe because you can step off on to the ground at any time. The Face problem next to it is tall and scary.

You can top rope the face by making an anchor off the tree and extending. To top rope "Left and Right" and the arete I slung a half fridge sized boulder and extended.

It's a shame none of the boulders around this one are any good :( I'm not trying to hide some super cool proj either. Every boulder nearby kinda sucks imo.
