Private Property - Access Sensitive MORE INFO >>>
The cliff band is on private property and has recently changed hands, which created some potential access issues. There are a number of "No Trespassing" signs on the land.
The owner of the property is alright with climbers being there. However, the "No Trespassing" signs will stay up, and are only there to "protect himself."
The landowner has also said that he is very pleased with what he's found out about the climbers and the etiquette of the area. He researched it online and found that we've always been very respectful of our privilege to climb there and that we value that privilege greatly.
With that being said, Bozoo is fair game for climbing. AS ALWAYS: BE RESPECTFUL OF THE PROPERTY AND THE AREA. NOT DOING SO COULD RESULT IN ITS PERMANENT CLOSURE.
This information is a public crowdsourcing effort between the Access Fund,
and Mountain Project.
You should confirm closures, restrictions, and/or related dates.

Description SDS in an open book dihedral. Move left to a comfy sidepull and climb the crack into a high sloper topout.
IMHO this is THE BEST boulder problem at Bozoo. A Classic that is easily passed because it really doesnt look special...
Location About 50ft past Slap and Squeeze. On a multidihedraled boulder. The left most crack.
Protection Pads
Chameleon. Way more awesome than it looks.

| Did you guys send this? Does the grade hold? I know Ed always wanted to know... Probably FA was 2003, not before that. |

| I did it maybe 2 years ago now. I thought the grade to be about V8 then, maybe a little soft. |

| I hate to be that guy...at the time I did it, I thought it was a 5, my friend Randy Burks repeated it and concurred. It is a bit heady, and very condition dependent...hence the name. |
