Cloud 9

Recently, however, bouldering possibilities above the canyon both to the north and the south have been explored. The four newest areas to have seen serious development are Cloud 9, the Rincon Boulders (AKA the Musical Boulders), the Physical Boulders, a half hour hike up Eldorado Canyon trail, and the Freight Train, a 15 minute hike from the Crescent Meadows trail head.

Cloud 9 is on hold because of sensitive access issues. However, there are equally worthy bouldering areas in Eldorado Canyon State Park and on nearby state land. The "Rincon Boulders" offer face climbing on perfect stone above soft landings. The Physical Boulders sport the incredible maroon stone of the consistently overhanging Nightmare Block. And for a change of pace, The FreightTrain offers killer moves on brilliant granite.
