It sits among a cluster of climbing spots in the park, with Font Cluster just 0.1 mile away and Horseman's Camp and the Salt Fork State Park climbing area both about 0.8 mile off. The bouldering here is a single route, Shea Butter, a V7 boulder problem. It was first climbed by James Smith, and it is the only route listed for this area.
