Description Suggest change

A classic run and jump problem. The V6 rating is not mine, but has been tossed about. As far as jump problems go, this one is pretty hard and is probably J2+. It is harder than the run and jump on Streetcar Named Desire, and miles harder than the Jump Chump.

Start well back from the South, and then sprint headlong at the boulder, trying to launch up and right to the obvious patina rail that is high above. Finish up and right on easy ground.

Here is a video link to "The Driver" trying this problem in the '80's. fishproducts.com/movies/dri…

Location Suggest change

On the front (South) face of the Entrance Boulder. Scramble off the back.

Protection Suggest change

Boulder problem, with cat like skills your only protection. A pad at the base may affect your approach run, and for sure removes style points.
