The Elephant's Trunk!! Do try!!

Description This is a testpiece of sloper skill and balance-intensive footwork. Begin with a right in a good slopey rail and a left on another sloper. Paste a high right foot, rock up and begin the slope-fest. A tenuous, left foot, heel smear and a toss to crumbling, granite texture is only the beginning. A paucity of holds guards the topout from those not willing to fight for it.
Protection Plenty of pine needles to soften your plummit.

| To my understanding this was F.A. by Jim Hausmann in 2000. Great problem. A must do.

| Great problem, the boulder reminds me of HP40. Really similar footwork/party trick problem to some stuff from the dirty, dirty south. |

| Good problem, but if you ask me, it's easier than the 4 up the hill. |
