Heart Cave

Description 

A classic highball on a wonderfully unique boulder. Begin sitting at a shelf low and right. Trend up and left past slopers and a flake to gain the huge holds atop the block, then continue moving up and left through crimpy, very committing moves to a relatively simple, but frightening rockover. Originally, the problem ended at the buckets on the block. That way is about V4 and still worth doing if you're not up to the scary exit.

Location 

Climbs out the right side of the huge alien-head/mushroom boulder in the center of the Heart Cave. Follow the chalk.

Protection 

Multiple pads and an attentive spotter.
