Description

This tall boulder offers so much potential. With an already established V7 called State of the Art, many more can exist with a cool low start into State of the Art as well. The face that is in the corridor holds a vast array of big sloping rails that have the potential to be a 30' climb on amazingly cool holds if you can but find a way to link them together. This side of the boulder has multiple different landing zones thus giving it the chance to be a "safe" 30' climb. Right around the corner, facing downhill, is an intimidating looking 45 degree jet black wall full of small bad holds. This wall has the potential for multiple double digit problems that are safe but tall enough to be "cool". Wheres the strong climbers at?

Getting There

If you've made it to Nighthawk, you have gone to far, but until an easier way is found, this may be the easiest way into the talus field. From Nighthawk, if you travel towards the White Slab boulder, go about halfway and then make your way straight down hill. eventually find yourself in a kind of hidden corridor surrounded by big boulders. The face you will see first has many vertical sloping rails on the face.
