Description 

Starting in the cave on the right side of the right side of the blowouts traverse out to large high pocket on left side of main bouldering area. For first part use small ledge for feet and crimper moving to a sort of lie back (or into) with your left hand in a nice dish. Use small crimper with right hand to transition body keeping feet high. Move to an undercling with right hand then drop right knee placing on rock for greater support. Follow obvious holds to the main pocketey part of the traverse (where traverse is generally started). Continue traverse using high (easiest) middle (harder) or low (harder) finish. Its fun stuff, you feel good when you complete it.

I thought the blowouts traverse was a V3 or V4.

It's harder if you go all the way from the cave on the right, and of course can be made as ridiculous as you want it to be. The easiest way through the main, chalked section is about V3.
