Hiking Directions:
Find the kiosk at the back of the larger parking lot. There is excellent signage showing the trail system with all of the boulders labelled. For the Entrance Boulders, Central Needleseye, Terry Area, and West End Area, follow the main climbers trail. The trail is about 1.5 miles to the end (Cobra Boulder) and takes around 35 minutes, realizing that it is gently downhill most of the way there and takes longer to walk back to the parking lot.
For the East Side Area, instead, walk through one of the two vehicle gates towards the back of the larger gravel lot. Walk down hill away from the parking for less than a minute, take a left onto a gravel access road, then again after less than a minute, take a right down the hill to a frisbee golf hole. Walk through this hole, head down the hill to your left and you will find the Luxury Liner boulder. From the downhill side of the Luxury Liner boulder, cut downhill onto the bike trail, heading East (away from the parking), follow the trail to the Room Boulder and Limit Boulder. Continuing on the trail will take you to the Bike Trail Boulder. To find the Minden boulder it is best to bushwack nearly straight down the hill along a drainage from the Bike Trail boulder.
