Type One Outdoors

Located just north of LA on the boundary of the Angeles National Forest, lies an ancient group of monolithic crags made up of conglomerate sandstone. Over the past few decades, sport routes have been established to make this a popular sport climbing destination for local LA climbers.

These towering crags in the Boquet Canyon, once formed the bed of an ancient mudstone bed, uplifted and eroded over a few eons, eventually carving deep canyons and corridors. This type of rock is textured by pebbles and pockets and feels like raw, un-finished concrete.

Meet Your Guide

Paul Reid

Hi! I'm Paul.

I’m the founder of Type One Outdoors, and have been living with T1D for 37 years.
I’ve been climbing since 2009 and guiding for a number of years now.
I am certified with the American Mountain Guides Association as a Single Pitch Instructor and a NOLS certified Wilderness First Responder.

What to Bring

Prepare a small backpack (about 10-15 litres in size)
Remember to bring with you all the supplies you’ll need for the day including medications, low treats, backup meter, lunch, snacks and water (1-2 litres)

There will be a 30-40 minute hike in from our parking area.
Trail runners are perfect.
Flip-flops or Crocs may be a little questionable on this terrain.
Hiking boots are good.

Remember, there’s no restrooms at the parking area or the climbing area (nature’s latrine) and there are some secluded spots.

Since we will be exposed to the elements:
Sun protection, and wind protection are the main things to consider (layers are the way to go)
In the winter it can get chilly, so a beanie and puffy will be great additions.
The summertime can get toasty out there in the sun.
For summer trips, I’d add a wide brimmed hat, sunscreen, lip balm, sun hoodie
Late summer and early spring can bring a sudden pop-up storm, a rain shell is never a bad addition.

What's included

If you have your own climbing gear, please feel free to bring it.

For Diabetic Climbers:

Bring any medications you might need for the day, including insulins. I will bring an assortment of handy refrigeration gadgets to keep all our medications temperature controlled for the day.
