Description
Gimme My Forty Sucka is the obvious crack that ascends the East face of the Hidden Boulder. It follows a slightly diagonal seam that starts about 6 feet off the ground and climbs through good lockers and edges with good feet if you spend the time to look for them. The rock is some of the most solid around so not much to worry about there but it's still a good way to scare yourself.
Protection
A couple stacked pads and a spotter would be wise... Fortunately the landing is nice and flat, but it can look a long way off from up top.
There's an easy wallk off the back once you're up top.
Off the Grid…
