Mike out on a cold day...


Description 

When reaching the top of the hill, one of the first lines that people notice is this sharp arete next to the trail. There are multiple ways of doing the problem. Sit start with both hands on a good rail down low. Some people use a crimp out left, some use the arete. Move up to some flexing flakes just left of the arete, work your feet around, pinch the arete up high, then hit the juggy lip and top it out.

Always fun, but it's only a matter of time before some of the flakes rip off.


Location 

On top of the hill, this boulder is called Try Again (aka Jelly Rock). The striking arete is right next to the trail, just right of Classic Crack. Downclimb through the chimney.

Pads, spotter

the funny thing about this problem and the others on this boulder is that the downclimb is harder than the actual send lol. i had a guy do classic and was stuck on top of the boulder for about 10 min before coaching him on getting down lol
