This is Worthless Boulder, named by the Rockclimbing.com community.
While geocaching nearby, we saw a couple of persons rock climbing. The rock seems very tricky as the angle is negative to whom is climbing. There are two routes to the top. It's seemed very difficult to reach the top. The climbers where using cushion, set on the floor, just to avoid some injuries.
Guess we wouldn't pass the first stage!
