Description 

This is a nice and interesting crack boulder problem. Start on two roughly equally positive underclings under the roof, the first of which is just past where the faint seam intersects the beginning of the crack. Move out the roof using some fun and interesting moves and do some burly pulls at the lip to get to the hand jams which are just past the obvious pod. This thing is much harder than it looks. A longstanding project, I believe this is number 15 in the Poland Hill section in the latest Vedauwoo bouldering guide.

Location 

Find The Bistro and walk to the next ridge of rocks which are a couple hundred feet behind The Bistro. Trend to the left to find this roof crack, which is a right-facing dihedral about five feet off the ground, and faces roughly southeast.

Protection 

A pad or two.
