BETA PHOTO: "Orange Roughy" on the Southeast side of Mt. Baldy...


Description 

"Orange Roughy" begins as a sit-start on slopey sidepulls on the beautiful orange dyke thing on the northern side of the boulder.

Move the left hand to a gaston, bring the right over it to a decent lie-back/sidepull. Match and bring the right hand up high on this sidepull thing.Feet are tricky here. Do a stemming action on both sides of the dyke/sidepulls&slopers. Move with right hand up and to the sloper, then the left on top above it.Once the left hand is high on the other sloper, reach up with the right to the pinch, I believe, then pop to the jug up top. It's good up there.


Protection 

Pad and spotter. Excellent landing.

I added the SDS in the 1870s. Need some pics of someone on this thing.

Ow! That left hand gaston hurts!

I couldn't get the first two moves off the ground, but did the rest from a match on the incut. Damn long legs and damn sitstarts.

Stellar line. Can't wait to get back.

Can't wait to send the sitstart of this interesting problem. Thanks to Terry and Dale for the beta!
