Description Suggest change

This beautiful arete is an outstanding problem with interesting movement, nice aestethics, and just the right amount of puckerup factor. On top of all this, the landing is flat and easy to protect.

Begin in the pod on the far left side of the boulder. Traverse right surfing through parallel seams housing a variety of veiled crimps and finger slots. Exit on an obvious system of crimps and pockets before your body is over the slab on the adjacent boulder.

The lower you stay on the parallel seams, the greater the difficulty tends to be.

Location Suggest change

This is on the west face of the overhanging Fountain Lip Boulder shared with Cave Direct.

Protection Suggest change

1 pad with a spotter OR 2 pads with an optional spotter.
