A unique bouldering area located within the Boulder Batholith. Unlike the typical vertical and crimpy style found elsewhere in the batholith, Fantasia offers steep, dynamic problems with powerful moves. The rock is solid, and the landings are generally good. The area is a playground for climbers seeking challenges in the V6 to V9 range.
Area affected by wildfire in 2019, burned trees may fall. Popular with hunters in the fall, wear bright colors. Dogs allowed.
