| I tried this a time or 2. Probably 2 separate lines. One that uses the arete and face and one that starts near the arete traverses a couple moves to the center and goes up. I tried the latter after building up the sloping hill a bit. Arete would need a bunch of cleaning and probably wouldn't be to hard maybe v3 or 4. Face is hard and painful and will be heady. Traverse isn't bad then you hit a really sharp sidepull thing and a bad right hand 2 finger gaston. Then you would have to hike your feet all the way up and manage to throw all the way to the lip (which is good). Doesnt seem to be any other holds but that. It is directly up from parking space #20 from the left if facing the talus. |

| I never thought I would say this but...I'm psyched to go bouldering! (Gasp!) Weird, someone slap me. |

| I also never expected you to say that! :-) This boulder field is awesome. Really filthy, but awesome. You literally walk straight up from your car. Which is nice. and there's tons of big blocs you can see from the parking lot and can walk straight up and scope them. I like. P.S. Did I mention that hold is sharp? Cause it's sharp. |

| Cool Sweaty, good work! Yeah the upper section seemed like the crux. Big move to the lip. |

| Linking this problem is very powerful. It needs to get sent! |

| Ian sent it today. Peter, Ian and myself figured out the beta, and Ian put it all together for the send. Really, really, really fun movement on the opening moves to a hard move to the lip. |
