Description Suggest change

Flat, overhanging crimpfest on the front and easier incut climbing on the right side. Problems from V0 to V10.

Like much of Lincoln Woods, which has been climbed on extensively for decades, this boulder has many named variations to routes, especially on the main face. The micro beta can sometimes be confusing. The climbing is very good though and many sessions can be had throwing yourself at this famous boulder.

Getting There Suggest change

10-minute walk from the Warm Up area. Start on the trail at campsite #59, pass Wave boulders on the Right and take small trail left past Ships Prow.
