Santee
Boulders
 Easy
access makes Santee Boulders a popular after work hangout. While
several rocks are tall enough so that toproping is recommended
(bolts on top), most of the climbing in this compact area requires
only shoes and chalk bag. Over 100 problems are crammed onto
30 or so granite boulders. Thin, crimpy face climbing, and difficult
mantles dominate the climbing at Santee, so bring a good fitting
pair of shoes if you want to master the many micro edge problems.
Access Issue : None known
How to get there
: From Hwy. 52, exit at Mast Blvd.
just as you enter Santee, head east on Mast Blvd. about 1/2 mi.
and park in the West Hills Park parking lot (across the street
from the boulders). From Mission Gorge Road in Santee, turn north
on West Hills Parkway, after about 1 mi. turn east on Mast Blvd.
