Rubber Cement

A short, powerful problem. Sit start on a good flat hold on the arete. Finesse your way up into two underclings at waist level, then step high and slap out right for the crystal (crux). Crimp hard and stand up to a better hold out left before topping out.

Someone attacked this problem with a brush not long ago and yielded new but useless holds out left.

Important Note: Sometime in the last year or two, a new hold has emerged on this climb. (See photos.) This hold appears to be have been intentionally created/chipped. As a result, the crux has become easier and the climb is likely a grade or two easier. Manufacturing holds is not an acceptable practice at Pawtuckaway and it's important that the climbing community continues to spread this message.
