Description 

This is also a very cool boulder problem. When walking down the trail, Thanatopsis is located in a little cove.

Start with a sit start and work you way straight up. Both walls are off (aka- no stemming). After pulling through the two small roofs. Either end after the big ledge or if you are on top-rope all the way up. I have never done it on top-rope because the boulder section is the best.

Protection 

The landing is very slanted on this one. A spotter would ease the fear of falling.

Thanatopsis means a view of death. If you have no spotter this definition will make sense.
