Description 

An atypical boulder for the Foothills: steep with actual solid holds making it perhaps the best boulder problem in the Foothills. Fairfield got the FA and Jon Cardwell later flashed it for the SA.

Location 

Starting on right facing pinches low and right, make the very technical and demanding moves to gain access to the good crimps at about head level. Continue left across the mid-section to the committing throw to the lip and mantle. Falling from the lip would be bad as the landing is very uneven over large boulders.

The stand start is most likely V8 and a direct low start that has yet to be done could check in at the V13/14 range

Protection 

pads/spotters (the more the better)
