call me old fashioned, but HP 40 is always a great place too (and less of a drive). i could boulder there forever!

Wes, I get it. I was there in Mar 98' the year they closed...or I mean restricted it. I just can't see climbing there with all the restrictions.

Biship has a live time of bouldering. Ever been up to the Druids? Long hike but endless boulders.

But yeah, as TankAzz says go to HP40...less driving and super cool night bouldering.

it really depends on what you want to do? trad, bouldering, sport, long routes, granite, sandstone???? all of the above??

for a mix of everything and ease of use red rocks is hard to beat.

mt. lemmon is actually a summer area due to the fact that it is at altitude. Cochise Stronghold is pretty amazing for long granite trad routes. Amazing vibes there. The bouldering is only so so though.

as other have said bishop is another amazing area with a wide variety of styles of climbing.

j-tree is another standard.

if you want long sport routes portrero chico has some fun flavor to it. for hard routes el salto is rad.

whatever you do have fun.
