The large slabby boulder sitting towards the southern end of Navarro Beach. As the "tide line" running horizontally around the boulder shows, the sand level can move up and down 6 feet or more - at times of high sand the boulder is barely worth climbing on, while at low sand it can get quite highball.
For the most part the problems are easy (VB or easier), but the rock is reasonably solid and the landings usually sandy and soft (though driftwood can collect around the boulder). While definitely not a destination, it's a very picturesque place to cruise about on some nice stone if you're in the area.
For those who don't like highballing, there is a huge, rusty boat anchoring contraption on top that could probably be used as a top rope anchor. It's a fair way back from the edge though, so bring long slings or a second rope.
