Day 46: The Roadside Boulders
So far so good with weather. Yesterday we decided to take a rest day and yesterday the clouds decided to dump rain…all day. We were getting nervous this morning because of the heavy cloud cover but everything cleared up perfectly. Conditions were cool and crisp.
Today we checked out the Roadside Boulders, the first bouldering area developed at Rocklands, considered the “main area.” Shortly after stepping out of the car and hiking a bit down the road, what I saw was…[ description goes here ]…..breathtaking? amazing? stunning?….you add the description, because I can’t come up with the words. This place is paradise. Boulders forever.
