Approach notes
From the SGL Gate 36-30 continue along the old access road for 10 minutes (0.5 miles) and enter the forest on the left downhill slope into an open pine forest. Follow the herd path 2 minutes (50 yards) to the boulders. You should be looking downhill at the back of Tall Boy H. From here you can either traverse through the boulderfield. North (left) towards A or south (right) towards S.
Tip: It is a lengthy boulderfield with lots of small pits to fall into. It is suggested to hike padless to view the entire boulderfield instead of traversing to see what’s, what.
