Description
This short crimper problem is found on the north side of the School Boulder which faces directly towards Stem Gem.
Start on the right side of the face, just right of a catclaw bush, and work good crimps up and left to reach a large, somewhat gritty edge which marks the end of the difficulties; easier face moves lead to the top. Downclimb is to the climber's right down an easy section of slab.
