Description:

A giant boulder accessible via an unmarked trail from the White Tank Campground has a natural formation in the shape of a heart. It's about 10 feet tall, rising out of a landscape strewn with boulders. Getting there might be tricky since there is no official path. The easiest way would be to first find Arch Rock and then find a path that will lead you northeast to Heart Rock. In a straight line Heart Rock is about 1,500 feet (1/4 mile) away from Arch Rock. Your route might meander a bit so take plenty of water, snacks, and wear good shoes to aid you in your search. Make sure you have your bearings as cell reception may be spotty to nonexistent. A nice, old-fashioned analog compass is always a good idea too!
