The Grit Mill (Sometimes mistakenly called the Grist Mill) is a few boulders around the Grit Mill parking lot below the LDS church vault. All the boulders in the guide are on public land, but going above the higher road behind Golden plates is private property. The Vault Roof cluster visible from the parking lot holds a variety of fun moderates, intermediates and one advanced problem: 'The Vault Roof'. 'Lava tag' is a unique intermediate on the back side. The rest are fun moderates with a few getting pretty tall on the south side. the huge 'Golden Plates' boulder straight up from the parking lot has several highball slabs and a few intermediate problems around the back. Just above it to the northwest is an interesting cave called Davey Jone's Locker that houses a few problems and lots of potential variations. The 'Holy' boulder has two fun intermediates 'Holy' and 'Full Authority'. There is some project potential down by 'Beach Town' and up the gully above 'Gripsalot'.
From the Grit Mill parking lot, you can see the Vault Roof up a small hill to the west, Golden Plates boulder in teh talus to the north, or head uphill behind the bathroom to an abandoned dirt road the leads east to Holy.
