Description 

I haven't heard a name for this boulder, calling it the 'Streamside Boulder' for now. It is just behind the Jonny and Hodgey boulder right by the stream. Past Hanks boulder and the stream crossing Johnny and Hodgey is the tooth shaped boulder on the left.

This line starts on the NE corner of the boulder and traverses across the lip of the boulder and finishes in the same spot as the standard warmup problem in the middle of the face. I scrubbed off a bit of lichen and moss and broke a few feet before this settled into it's present state. It involves a few fun sloper moves until you hit the jugs. A decent warmup (along with the center face line). Worth perhaps 1.5 stars. FA perhaps - unless someone didn't even use the initially crumbly feet.

Pad nice but not necessary
