I remember passing the meadow 2.9 miles (according to the WP
guidebook) north of Glen Aulin (Section I) and seeing the big boulder
with the overhanging sides in the "soggy meadow."

It was raining and windy, and I looked at it longingly but the
guidebook pointed out it was a prime lightning target, so I passed on
a sheltered lunch...
