Description 

This problem sit starts on a sidepull pinch/sloper jug at the left of the Pharaoh Boulder. I believe that the large crimp sidepull about 6 feet from the ground around the right of the arete, and the large shelf at about 7-8 on the right side of the arete are not to be used to keep it at it's original grade of V5. I am not sure, however, and welcome any input from other members. I will post pictures when I can get some.

Location 

Below the Cave Boulder at the far left of the Pharaoh Boulder.

Protection 

Two pads are probably best. Watch your back and head as you head upward.
