	The following beta was given to me by James Harrison... Roger's Park is Lake Belton's secluded bouldering garden. The bulgey grey cliff band winds around the lake hidden by trees. Quiver up its slopey highball topouts. Pure pocket climbing on steep grey walls best describes this area. Boulder problems of all grades are found on the walls of Roger's Park, many are V0 to V4. During 1998 bouldering at roger's exploded as it came under the eye of Austin's powerfull bouldering scene. Today many hard new problems can be found here. The potential is good for new even harder problems. Because of a lack of direct sunlight, the walls here are sometimes wet and spoogy, definately best during dry conditions. Never the less, Roger's Park is excellent. History: The first climber found these well hidden walls by getting drunk and stumbling off of the top. Joey Phillips tirelessly laid the stone trail that traces the cliff band. Boulder problems and walls are described left to right. As you will encounter them walking along the cliff. Little Cave -- the first bouldering walls you reach, marked by seamy cracks and a drwarf sized cave. The Prominant feature of this wall is a wide right arching dihedral.
