About Dixon School Boulders:
Dixon School, aka Buzzards Roost, aka Plonk Rock. This is an old area that is seeing new life thanks to Crowders Mountain State Park, the Carolina Climbers Coalition and numerous volunteers. Hundreds of man hours have gone into clean up, trail constuction, and a new visitor center. Couple this with new lines being cleaned by boulderers and Dixon has a chance of becoming a great addition to North Carolina's 5 star bouldering. With Dixon's sporatic development it is nearly impossible to find the first assentionist and the original names. With that being said many of the route names given are meant only as a description with respect to the first assentionist. |
