Description 

Originally called V7 it was downgraded after several ascents but feels way stout till you find the right sequence. Still probably V7 on a hot day....
Climb the small scoop up the center to a slopey topout. Start standing with a terrible nipple/crimp for the left hand and the right hand on one of several options. Getting off the ground is tough. The topout is not as easy as you might hope. Great little climb that deserves to see more action.

Location 

Found on the west face of the smaller of the two Roadside Boulders.

Protection 

A pad. Watch out for the thorn bush at your back...
