Carrizo Overlook Boulders is a climbing area on Bureau of Land Management land within the El Centro Field Office in California. The nearest town is Campo, and the surrounding area has several other climbing spots, trails and a campground within a few miles. Spring and fall are the most comfortable times to visit. Typical averages from the Campo weather station, about 15 miles away, show April highs near 69°F and October highs near 78°F, while July and August average around 91 to 93°F. That station sits well below the boulders, so temperatures at the climbing area run cooler. Nearby, Lowenbrau Pinnacle is about 1.5 miles away, and Big Rock Trail and Ridge Trail are both hikes within about 2.3 miles. Cottonwood Campground, roughly 3.8 miles away, offers a place to stay.
