From the volcanic boulders scattered around the Sonoran Desert to the granite blocs in the Sky Islands and the water polished gneiss littering streambeds in the foothills of the Catalinas, we have a variety of options depending on the season and our mood. Tucson may not be a destination area for bouldering, but there is plenty to keep the locals busy, and a handful of worthy areas for a climber passing through town.

I hope to keep adding new information, photos and media slowly over time, but am always looking for ideas and submissions from anyone in the community. Thanks to all that have contributed so far, and stay tuned as the site continues to develop. Happy climbing!

Can't wait to check this place out! More info at the BLOC.
