Description 

Start the same as Monkey Gone to Heaven but stay low and make a powerful gaston move to link into the start of Pixie Dust and then finish up the fun moves of that problem. For more value continue right and then down along the lip to finish as per Monkey Gone to Heaven which may not make it any harder but will certainly add to the pump.

  • This problem isn't listed in the Joshua Tree Bouldering Guide but is an obvious line with some good moves that's worth a go when in the area.


Location 

North side of the boulder.

Cool problem if you want to see what a hard boulder feels like while being close to the ground. Kinda silly, kinda fun. I wouldn't drive out of my way to get to this thing but if you're in Indian Cove and have some time to kill give it a shot since its literally right next to the road.
