Details
If you are coming up, note the following:
-There are no fires allowed anywhere, including the boulder basin & group campsites.
-Please carpool, parking is limited, so if you show up and there is nowhere reasonable for you to park, you must leave. (instead of parking somewhere unreasonable).
-Bring cash to park, lots of people showing up without cash. Even if you don't camp overnight, you still must pay for day parking.
-Don't climb boulders in/ around occupied camp sites (some say ask, personally I just go somewhere else).
-Spread out a bit.

Description
This is a proud face problem on the north side of the Kong Boulder. The holds are all slopers and smears, and require dry fingertips as well as an almost irrational trust in one's sticky rubber shoes. There's a definite crux - a bulge 10' up - but the whole thing is pretty entertaining. An old-school masterpiece.
