Basalt outcrop near the NW side of SP Crater, a cinder cone towards the northern tip of the San Fransisco Volanic Field. Drive out to SP Crater, go through the main lava flow on the north side, and the problems will be on the left side of the road after you wind through the lava. Any vehicle can make it. Park and walk up to the cliff/boulders. The boulders that have fallen off make for somewhat sketchy bouldering, bring a crash pad, and there is excellent face and crack climbing in the main cliff. Watch out, the rock quality is pretty poor in places, but good in others. It may be possible to set up a top rope for the main cliff.
