Access Issue: Most of these boulders are within the Mt. Blue Sky (formerly Mount Evans) Wilderness Area, regulated & patrolled by the US.
Details
Most boulders are located within the Mt. Blue Sky (formerly Mount Evans) Wilderness Area, regulated & patrolled by the USFS. Climbers should be on their best behavior, practice Leave No Trace. Please abide by these requirements: it can take vegetation decades to recover from damage. Place crash pads judiciously, & keep brushing to a minimum. Before adding new lines, considered the damage that may be caused by additional foot traffic, pads, etc.
Chalk is unsightly to non-climbers. Please avoid chalking up boulder problems that are visible from the Chicago Lakes Trail, & in general, keep chalk use to a minimum. Brush all tick marks off after every session. Use containers that prevent chalk spills & if you do spill, clean it up.
Stashing crash pads is forbidden by the USFS. Pads will be confiscated.
Noise: this is a Wilderness area that is enjoyed by many, mostly non-climbers. The last thing passing hikers want to hear are f-bombs, iPod speakers, grunting, etc. In fact, most other CLIMBERS don't want to hear any of these things either. The easiest way for us to lose access is to elicit complaints from other user groups.
Dogs must be leashed at all times, they scare wildlife. Obviously, clean up after your dog.

Description
Start low down on the right, possibly sitting, in the same spot as All Dogs Go to Evans. Climb left along and out the overhang, trending along the steep arete as per ADGTE for about 10-12 feet. At this point, instead of continuing left with ADGTE, perform a burly mantel up onto the face (crux), which will require some effort and proud manteling skills. Once established on the face, dance up the 80 degree slab on thin imperfections for 15+ feet to the top.
I've given this two stars but its honestly a little better than that. You get to do the first ~8 moves or so with ADGTE (great), one of the burliest mantels at Evans onto a slab (powerful puzzle-solving) and a slightly sketchy slabtacular run to the finish.
