This is very important to remember, and the rules associated with climbing here must be respected if it is to remain open to climbers. In order to climb or boulder at this area you must sign a waiver and pay a one-time $8 fee at the Portland Rock Gym. Be sure to carry photo ID with you when you're at the area. Respect the land owner's property, don't litter, don't add or remove any bolts without permission, etc. It would be a big loss to the Portland climbing community if Carver were to be closed to us so do your part to keep it open and accessable.
Sharp, painful, and almost impossible if you don't have good finger-crack technique. A series of powerful jams will get you to the lip of the boulder where a relatively easy mantle awaits.
This problem is more awkward than hard. If you've got the right size fingers (small) it is significantly easier. If you've got bratwursts, it might be impossible. would recommend a spotter for the mantle.
