Got a little off topic in the Nuevo thread... Here's a pic to break it off...
This rock has everything from a 5.10 highball face, to v1-2 mantles, v4ish aretes and v9 mutant overhangs... located halfway up on the black mountain foot trail.
ANYONE have pics and stories about climbs up here post em up!
Fred, you have any old ass hippie pics? haha

neebee, if youre on the 243 from the north side of the mountain (10 fwy), the blk mtn foot trail is about 4 miles before you hit the black mountain truck trail (the road to boulder basin). hiking the trail from the bottom really only has a purpose if the gates on the road are closed. But since theyre open, you might as well drive up to boulder basin and hike down the foot trail about halfway. This rock would be the lowest elevation youd go to find anything to climb along the trail anyways so its best to go from the top. its right on the trail and you'll see a ton of chalk on it. if you come from the bottom its about a mile and a half up the steep trail.
DR F, Tram is amazing, but the approach is either a long hike up devils slide from humber park or 22 bucks to go up the gondola... but yeah, the boulders up there are realllly good.

Used to cut firewood up there. Did a little scrambling BITD, 1980-ish.
Great place....lot's of history, lots of memories.
Largo....that is a all time classic picture !!
I visited "Old Ass Hippie" and his lovely wife Robin this weekend. Set them up with a Photo-Bucket account. Hope he post sum pics. He's done a lot of stuff up there.
Side note.....I always thought "Old Ass Hippie" was Warren Eggbert. Oh well.

Great pics Graham !!
klk....... we used beer cans as cheat stones when needed, also, when enough of them accumilated (as they always did), there were used as crash pads !! I've might have met you back then with S and R. However, my memory has faded a bit, due to, um, to many, "cheat stones". Ha !
Sewellymon...... Warren Dude (aka: the original Old Ass Hippie), never ever did I witness him boulder, EVER ! Always doin routes, back country, solo or roped.
Common Scott, post sum pics !! Pretty please? I know you got 'em.

I have to agree it's some of the best summertime climbing in Southern California. I have a feeling the forest service will close the gate this week, with the coming storm.

Graham-- tx for the pix. That panorama is great, but you should resize it for this thread, else all the folks in rural rivco on dial-up won't be able to read or contribute to this thread.
I've bouldered a number of times along that trail, but can't recall that first shot you posted.
Paul: Documentary evidence that Warren does boulder:
Co. Park, not Black, but still, caught in the act.
And the bionic woman, no shoes, no holds, no pad, no problem:
And Scott in, I think, Green Dot rubber on the classic roadside problem:
Anyone know the history of those older Co. Park routes? I always reckoned that the one pictured above dated to Couch/Kamps vintage.

Black MT.( the true pioneers) John long ,lynn hill and all the original crew!! THE STONE MASTERS! These guys climbed all over the MT. When was a kid I read a artical about the place, road my IT 400 from hemet up the control road, and was hooked, thats when it started for me. I'v got pix, all slides it will take a bit time to get them out there. as for the old ass hippie nick name, waren was the original hippie! I tried to enter all types of names! Whatever, I feel like an old ass hippie, and don't we all from that era... it's just a web name. waren is now known as the Desert Darryl living in moab, still cranking!!!

I think Largo's article in Climbing (see the pic he posted above) got most of us up that hill for the first time. It must've been paradise when he and Sutton and Grandstaffe and whoever else first went up there.
I have no idea about the earlier days-- Kamps? Couch? Higgins? Robbins? Plenty of folks good on the boulders climbed at Idyllwild in the 1950s if not earlier. But then, Tahquitz and Suicide-- and the roadside boulders in town --were still new and shiny.
I think my first trip was 1981 or 1982. Black Mt. was my primary warm weather area for a good 10 or 12 years. It appears that Paul and I had similar taste in shorts.

Yes, I agree with Scott....... we ALL were very much inspired by Largo, Stonemasters, etal. We were standing on the shoulders of giants.
Kerwin......I touched up your original photo for clarity. That's one "BAB" (Big Ass Boulder).
Great photo klk !
Pic of Warren bouldering.... WOW !! Forgot he had a "Watusi" digit. Ha !
Scott....didn't we rename the Jewell to... " A mirror at the base will get you up any face". Ha !!

The gate was open last week. We had a weak storm roll through, so i don't know if it's still open. Even though the gate was open the Forest Service station in Idyllwild was saying it was closed. Come down Memorial weekend, there should be a "Boulder Bash." The yearly "opening weekend" party.

Hey Scott, Those are some great pictures. Wow. Warren, have not thought of him in awhile and Paul too. I sent you an email, did you get it?
Here are some later shots from when Paul was bolting all thos routes by the crashed helicopter, Do you remeber when Paul put up that right side of the arete adn called it 13+? Gilje got wind of it I guess, he asked me to show it to him. We went out there and he got it first try. Here is a picture of too strong on the left arete 5.11 something I think..
This other one is from that short over hanging wall. I think Bowling took this shot.

just a heads up, went up the road today and the second gate was open! The gate to boulder basin is still closed but that wont stop you from heading towards fuller. Brought some beginners with me and climbed OK corral a bit, then headed up to the group camps and did some fun little problems. A bit windy but the weather was great. Road was fine except for the logging debris everywhere. there was even a bit of snow drift left a bit higher up. definitely a good time. I'll post some pics later.

At the time, Jimmy and his Dad ran one of those mail-order survivalist supply companies. I remember him telling me that he got busted for fighting, while he was in the Army. Lovely fall weather back in Carolina-- as punishment, he had to spend a couple days picking up leaves with a fork.

A correction to a correction: The Santee '81 looks like Santee, not Woodson. Nothing around Woodson is as flat as the surrounding terrain. Plus I don't think they had a contest at Woodson in '86.
Also the STH RDG? looks alot like the Scoop boulder near the OK Corral but I could be wrong.

Jean B in the campground.
Jean and Rob were about the only women I ever saw bouldering at Black back then. I guess Mari. I presume Lynn and Mariah spent some time, as well. Early 1980s was probalby the low point, or one of the low point, for women's participation in bouldering and rock climbing in SoCal.

Once we'd dialed most of the stuff we'd found from Largo's "Pumping Granite," we started getting away from the campground and the corral.

Nice pics of Jean. That's the opposite side of the Transmaniacon boulder, I believe.

Curt, we met at Boulder Basin, didn't we? 1982? I don't have any pix of you from Idyllwild, though, and few enough pix of anything at all up there.
I have some more Black Mt. shots from the early '80s left to scan.
And yeah, Transmaniacon is on the opposite side of that 5.11 Jean is climbing.

Hey Kerwin,
1982 sounds about right. I think I crimped my way past some burly mantle problem you were particularly fond of.

Does anyone know if the road to Black Mt is open?
I saw a blog post where it appeared people were climbing there last weekend in t-shirts....thinking about rolling up there this weekend but the ranger station isn't answering the phone, apparently they are closed Thursdays, and I would hate to drive all the way up there for the road to be closed.
Anyone know?

Nice. I eyeballed KLK's sequence just upthread many times before I finally solved this riddle. The mantle is so improbable... so burly..... and then: there you are, balanced on your pinky, feet under the overhang, nary a hold in sight. What now?
The Fallen Arch, a real puzzlemaker, one of the sweetest problems around for sure.
