Rock Climbing at Granitica


Scouts and leaders had a great campout and climbing adventure in February at Granitica in Anza-Borrego.




After a great night sleep at Cottonwood Campground, listening to frogs croak in the springs and coyotes howl, we trekked over to to a boulder field on a nearby hill named Granitica.




Scout leaders Bryce and John scouted the area and found a great rappel and some good bouldering.

Connor H checks out the landing area.









Tanner M is a real hot dog on the cliff.









Galo F shows the young men how it is done.


David A has an attitude on his fourth trip down.









Devin A and Connor H chill on a granite slab.


Spotters are key for safe bouldering.
