Description

Approach the Lower Satellites. The first wall you come to on your left is the Sputnik Boulder.

Sputnik Left starts low in the conspicuous crack that splits the modules of the Sputnik Boulder. Reach left to a small crimp or two, get a good foot, reach/swing/deadpoint for the top and pull over.
