North Coast Climbing.
Sunset Boulders are located in Goat Rock State Park. This is the classic bouldering area for the North Coast. For years this has been the most popular spot in Sonoma to learn, toprope, boulder, and sandbag.
Sunset Boulders
Glaucophane-garnet schist boulders rise out of the coastal plane. Subducted and reheated over and over again in the hydraulics of the San Andreas Fault Zone, these boulders have hard solid edges and Gritstone like friction.....Unless it's raining!
The Sunset Face (5.9) provides a sustained 40'  toprope with thin incut edges and cracks.
Climb the relatively easy face at center to find various bolts and cracks for toproping. Some long slings 15' or more can be useful for seting up variations and avoiding sharp edges.

Twin Coves
Cimbing Information
Twin Coves is located on a rocky spit just 3 miles north of Jenner. Centered between two secluded coves this island of rock offers a stunning 5.6 arete, a big roof, caves, boulders, and more
The Solo Arete (5.6) tops out 40' off the deck. Bolts at summit allow for top roping on all sides, (bring some padding for sharp edges)
The South Cove Boulder. Your choice of sand or water landings! (The main island is seen in background)
On Hwy 1, three miles north of Jenner, park at the dirt turnout and follow trails down the bluff between the coves. Some creative toproping with long slings and edge padding is required for most topropes.

Small pockets lead to big pockets, big pockets lead to cracks, cracks lead to huge wacos, pull out of the wacos to stemming through a roof /corner system, finish on large flat ledge. Nice!

Cimbing Information
As you travel north on Hwy 1 you shift to the opposite side of the falt zone and leave behind the metamorphic schists and gneiss and find more sedimatary sandstone, pebbly sandstone, and sandy conglomerate. These ancient sea beds have been faulted into huge slabs, then wonderfully sculpted into honeycombs, pockets, cracks, and caves. This area takes the full force of a northwest swell, watch for sleeper waves and beware of ticks on the approach.
