Details
Garrett Mountain falls under the Passaic County Park system which under Article 2 section 37 "No Person shall engage in the climbing or repelling in the climbing or mountains, mountain cliffs and/or building structures on park premises."
The first developer of this area has been bouldering at the Flakes since the late 1990's. The Flakes is in the woods and somewhat obscured from easy viewing down the hill.
The Flakes area is about 100 yards uphill from a police station. Climbers must be discrete, keep quiet, no super bright colors, etc. Keeping a low profile is essential to maintain the use of this area.

Description
Begin as Yin and Yang but this time when you pull onto the route using the same holds, slap around the corner for a good layback hold around the corner to the right. Heel hook far around the corner with the right foot. reach around to the right side of the arete with left hand. Pull up and keep hands just to the right or left side of the arete. Same for feet. Follow to the large ledge and then down climb. Although this climb shares many of the same holds as Yin and Yang, this is a very different problem because the climber is often pulling to the right where Yin and Yang require the climber to pull off to the left.
