Sit Down Start on big incut jug. Move up through overhang on good holds.

There are a couple good lines (with some choss still) on this boulder. It is located above the traverse.

SDS with left hand on one pad crimp and right on 2-3 finger dished crimp. Crux is pulling up and off start holds. Cruise good holds to top and top out.

SDS on good ledge. Move up on fun slopers and crimps. First move is big and up to the left using a cool round sloper/pinch. Top out. Good landing, but sometimes wet at base. Boulder on the left is off. 

Rock quality is not the best, but it isn’t bad. Start in the water and climb up pretty good holds to top out. Jump in and repeat. 

The test piece boulder problem for the Marquette area. It was done in the early 90's by Mike Moss at maybe V4, but a key hold had broken and it took another 4 years for Josh to piece it together. Start far right on your bum. With your hands on the lip of the overhang, drop below the lip and traverse 20 ft to your left till the overhang comes to an end and top out. Good luck.

Start the same as The Traverse (V6), but ride the lip all the way over on good holds and top out.

Upper body dependent problem with some heel hooking. Sit start on northwest side of boulder (lake on climbers left and parking lot on right side over hill) and traverse to left 6-7 moves then top out. Legs are under overhung boulder when not heel hooking.

Black Rocks has a few meanings to locals. Most commonly, it's the cliff jumping area (or the micro brewery) but it also refers to the black volcanic rock (basalt) that wraps half way around the park this band is home to several fun boulder problems.
