Access Issue: Most of these boulders are within the Mt. Blue Sky (formerly Mount Evans) Wilderness Area, regulated & patrolled by the US.
Details
Most boulders are located within the Mt. Blue Sky (formerly Mount Evans) Wilderness Area, regulated & patrolled by the USFS. Climbers should be on their best behavior, practice Leave No Trace. Please abide by these requirements: it can take vegetation decades to recover from damage. Place crash pads judiciously, & keep brushing to a minimum. Before adding new lines, considered the damage that may be caused by additional foot traffic, pads, etc.
Chalk is unsightly to non-climbers. Please avoid chalking up boulder problems that are visible from the Chicago Lakes Trail, & in general, keep chalk use to a minimum. Brush all tick marks off after every session. Use containers that prevent chalk spills & if you do spill, clean it up.
Stashing crash pads is forbidden by the USFS. Pads will be confiscated.
Noise: this is a Wilderness area that is enjoyed by many, mostly non-climbers. The last thing passing hikers want to hear are f-bombs, iPod speakers, grunting, etc. In fact, most other CLIMBERS don't want to hear any of these things either. The easiest way for us to lose access is to elicit complaints from other user groups.
Dogs must be leashed at all times, they scare wildlife. Obviously, clean up after your dog.

Description
Another great problem put up in the infancy of Mt. Evans bouldering. Begin from a sit start matched on a RH gaston down low in a talus hole with a crappy left foot to start. After a few moves, you can exit right for V6 ... OR ... for the true line and full points ascend the steep overhang up and left over an arete.
Location
The Gallery is located in an alcove located on the opposite side of the boulder which hosts Black Streak and Peasants Into Leaders. Walk around the back side of this huge boulder, then squeeze through a slot to arrive in the alcove. The Gallery ascends an overhang on the right when you arrive in the alcove, starting at a low right hand gaston from a sit.
