| A pumpy V2 variation sit starts low on the right side and traverses up and left to join the conventional route. |

| I obviously missed this problem while I was out there. That's alright. It was in the '90s and found plenty of other stuff to leave some skin on. Fun looking rock though. |

| It looks like a new problem was put up about 6ft to the left of the Millennium start. It starts matched on a crimp, throw right to a small hueco and match, then throw right to the last big flake and top out. Try it sometime. |

| I don't know how accurate this is, but on www.rockclimbing.com, there's information on a V3 variation if you campus the Falcon. Pretty sweet. |
