Comments: Not sure if Jim cleaned it or not but I do know that Brian Camp came excruciatingly close to doing this on his first day. Suprised all you strong MN kids don't work on this more.

Comments: I am do not htink you or any other climber had anything to do with that tree. I just noticed last time I was there that it was gone.
I am sorry if I sounded like I was trying to point the finger.

Comments: I'm not sure if you are trying to hint that I took out a tree or not but I can assure you I didn't. Also, I did this problem last summer(along with other people) before any storms and don't remember any tree being in the way. Maybe I am confused on where Bulldozer is???

Comments: Yeah Jim started matched on that "lower" start.
There are tons of neglected boulders at Sawmill. I think with some work and brushes 50+ new problems could go up.

Comments: There is a hold on the face that could be used for a matched start (the possible "lower" start I was referring to)
We were starting with a right hand on that face hold and left hand on a sloper on the arete.
This past weekend was the first time I've seen this boulder and I can't believe it doesn't get more traffic. Super fun.

Comments: hahahah,
Yo, I am not sure where you started but Jim showed me the problem a year or so ago? I couldn't even move really. From what I remember it was hard. He called it a 6 from a lower hold? I think that grade is ridiculous.
Is there a Hold on the face? I remember trying the start from a hold on the face???? but I could be wrong.
Brian Camp also did a weird little problem Down and left (if you are looking at Vag Bagger) He called it a 5 or 6? I have never done it and have not seen it in... more >>

Comments: We never climbed this because of the tree that had been "knocked down during the storm". I wish the storm had never taken down the tree....
I hope "storms" do not take out anymore trees by boulder problems. There are plenty of lines to be cleaned around treeless boulders.

Comments: Nice add-on for Arrowhead Left, Arrowhead Direct, or Rubble Trouble; Fun, somewhat dirty, face climb with some moderate challenge; I enjoyed it. Came up just under and to right of small cedar tree near bottom of cliff.

Comments: stem the dihedral or climb the crack on the left side; best to decide before you take a breather on that nice, fat ledge 1/2 way up!
