Trash Boulder
**Trash Boulder Trash Boulder has a lot of fun easy problems and several high moderates.
Directions: From Truckee head south on 89 through the tunnel and at the intersection of 89 and River street head another .3 miles and turn right at a road that quickly becomes a dirt road. Follow it for .2 miles until the road takes a hard left (from here you can see the boulder through the trees on the right). Take the right just around the bend then another quick right on a faint road that goes to some old furniture and the trash boulder.

Approach: Park at the boulders
Ambiance: * Just you and the forest, and a cool boulder and an old couch and some old clothes, and well the name of the boulder says it all. The nearby road is popular with mountain bikers.
Parking: The old campsite could hold several cars.
Kids/Dogs: The backside of the boulder is a good kid height, and the dogs should be pretty free to roam. The road seams pretty popular for mountain bikers and the boulder is an easy spot for locals get a session in.
Shade: Shady
Rock Type: Granite-Quality
Notes: Their is some trash. Good beginners boulder. Someone has been cleaning up this boulder and its landings.
1. VB From a slopey rail head up a short face to an arete.
2. *V0 From the right side of the slopey rail head up and right to the big notch and top out.
3. V2* Start with the rock at your back on a sidepull in the seam and a right hand pinch then move left to a diagonal crimp then up into #2.
4. V2* Stand start on the left side of the arete with a creaky left hand sidepull and a pinch on the arete then head up then leftish.
5. V4** Trash Boulder Arete SDS and head up the left side of the arete and face. Now that someone jacked the boulder out of the landing this is a lot more workable problem. The opening move is a little reachy.
5a. V9? Bummer Sit SDS on the arete and work up and right into the start of #6.
6. V6? Bummer High (Pad Stacked) compresson start on the little roof feature and head up and right on improving holds.
7. V7? Start right hand on the crimp under the roof and head up more crimpers.
7a. V4!? Fire Line Start with you left hand on the crimp under the roof and head up the crimps to a scary topout.
8. V3***! Hobo with a Shotgun Start on a jug at 6' then head up to a diagonal crack then left and up along the good rails into Fire Line and top out on good feet and bad hands.
9. **V1 Head up the horizontal seams.
10. **V0 Take the right leaning seam up.
11. **V2 Work up the arete with fun big moves.
12. *V1 Work the crimps right to some slopers then head back left for the top..
13. *V0 Good feet and rails to slopers.
14. *V1 Low crux undercling start to good slopers and work left.
15. *V1 From a crimpy sloper and good feet head on up the good holds on the slab.
