Hike down the gated dirt road for .4 miles and cut south through a small, flat clearing which eventually leads to another old dirt road. Follow the dirt road for .4 more miles until the road ends. The boulders will be 100 yards north. NOTE that high clearance is a must and 4x4 is strongly reccommened. As of 2026 there is one section of the road which is quite brutal and impassible by many cars. The walk from the Group Sites parking is honestly not that bad and is a good alternative if you wanted to explore these deep gems without a rugged vehicle.
