About Sad Boulders

Distinctive narrow catacomb-like channels and cave systems: Ice Caves, Death Star Cave, Misery Cave, and the Pow Pow Area hold much of the hard climbing. Cave systems provide cool climbing spots even outside the prime season. Chalk Bluff Road access; small BLM pull-out for parking; stay off the plants.

Rock type: Welded tuff
Aspect: mixed-facing
