Rattle Rock is a much different arena than the flat or even hilly woods associated with rec ball or wooden scrap barriers like many established fields. You won't find any trees, spools, or straw bales here. This collapsed lava tube has created a gauntlet with 20 foot rock climbable rock walls on either side. Though wildfires in 2013 wiped out all of the large sagebrush and crumbled some of the manmade rock barriers, there's still plenty there to have a great time. There's still a lot of manmade rock walls, caves, and tunnels; at one time, there were over 40. A couple of the high vantage points have walls built around them to act as a turret. Surprisingly great place to play. If you're really adventurous, it can easily become an interesting bouldering/paintballing mix. There are plenty of Rattlesnakes out in desert and Rattle Rock is far from the exception. It's a good idea to walk the field and make sure all your opponents are human before you start playing. You'll want to check out the tunnels and caves as well. You wouldn't want to dive in there and find the spot already taken. Some people have played out here a lot and never seen a rattlesnake on the field but be cautious, safe, and play at your own risk.

If you continue down the road a bit more to the Southeast, there's a popular shooting spot that sometimes shoots towards The Gauntlet. Make sure there's nobody shooting your direction before you start to play. You may also consider putting a sign or something up over there to let people that may come know that you're up in the hill and would prefer not to be shot at.
