Carver cliff is on PRIVATE PROPERTY! MORE INFO >>> This is very important to remember, and the rules associated with climbing here must be respected if it is to remain open to climbers. In order to climb or boulder at this area you must sign a waiver and pay a one-time $8 fee at the Portland Rock Gym. Be sure to carry photo ID with you when you're at the area. Respect the land owner's property, don't litter, don't add or remove any bolts without permission, etc. It would be a big loss to the Portland climbing community if Carver were to be closed to us so do your part to keep it open and accessable. This information is a public crowdsourcing effort between the Access Fund, and Mountain Project. You should confirm closures, restrictions, and/or related dates. Keeping climbing areas open and conserving the climbing environment

Description 

Sit Start on the obvious chalked holds down low on the far right of the "Enforcement" boulder. Slap left and right to the top and pull over on jugs. Look for heel hook trickery to pull off the ground. It is a standard Carver low-ball/sit start crux. There is definitely a different name for this problem, so correct me if anyone knows.

Location 

The "Enforcement" boulder is the obvious wide and fairly short boulder down the trail from the "Wave" boulder in the Banzais. It slopes upward from left to right.

Protection 

A pad and spotter
