Introduction
This is the closest area to the road and the start of the boulder field. There is an obvious cave at the lake end and The Good, The Bad and The Ugly boulder is obvious towards the mine.
Access
From the creek crossing head up and slightly in the direction of the mine until you reach GBU, the rest of this area is then heading towards the lake.

The Good, the Bad and the Ugly
This boulder is the obvious overhang to the left of the field. From the creek crossing head up and slightly towards the mine. There is a few different tags and cairns to follow but not much of a track yet.
A great boulder with a handful of quality routes and still more potential.
The Good, the Bad and the Ugly Boulder
Straight up obvious line with a good top out.

Start on two small crimps with poor feet, make a big move to another crimp and jugs to finish.

There is a great looking line starting low down under the overhang and coming up left without using the broken piece of rock. Could be hard.
Project.
The overhanging part of this boulder has a seam all the way around it, unsure on stability/safety.
The Good, the Bad and the Ugly
To the left of the Blondie Arete there is a nice dynamic line with an obvious pebble jug and a techy top out.

The Lone Ranger
This boulder is located in the middle of the low area-right of GBU. It's left of the cave that's obvious from the road. It has a nice flat landing and behind it are some fun VE highballs.
Start standing under the highest point of the boulder, move straight up with good feet and two small left crimps before gaining the ledge and an easy top out.
Moses Bassett 2014
The best line on this boulder. There are a few pockets that make obvious holds, start under these with big moves to link them and a good high jug to finish.
