I really think this was sent post 2004, I always remember that boulder being dirty and untouched, I need to see it when I go back there. Is this below the Cereal Wall boulder? Just above the Sloper roof bouler?

Fact, that problem was sent by Andy Quillen and myself(Shawn McCauley) in 1999. hell i showed the whole boulder and problems to Truc back in 2002/2003.

I will gladly take the blame on the FA error. I am pretty sure these names came from him, do you have the original name for the lip traverse? of the right SDS arete?
