Call Box Rocks is a bouldering area within Salt Point State Park in California, managed by State Park and Recreation. It sits among the park's other climbing spots, with The Quarry just 0.1 mile away. The area's routes run from V0 to V7-8 on the V scale and from V4+ to V7-8 on the YDS scale. The bouldering is the focus here, with eight boulders in total. The hardest, Fear of the Inevitable, is listed at V7-8, and The Arch is at V4+. Walking On the Moon is V1, and Stoney Arete is V0 for a simpler start. The weather stays mild all year. A nearby weather station at Ft Ross typically averages highs around 67°F in summer and 57°F in winter, with lows near 42°F in December and January. That station sits about 6.6 miles away and 84 feet from the park's elevation, so temperatures at the park may run a little different. For more climbing, Salt Point State Park itself is 0.6 mile away, and Johnny Cash Boulders is 0.9 mile off. The Salt Point Trail and Stump Beach Trail are both within half a mile for a walk along the park's shoreline.
