Description

This is a strange little problem that I really didn't like very much - until I finally did the crux move right and suddenly I thought it was great. Solving a puzzle and all that.

See the description of Sweet Sweet Lovin' to find this boulder. From that problem, this boulder is about 50 feet southeast, also in the Originals.

The Mantle/Hump problem is on the backside of the biggest boulder. You will see a finegrained flake that lies just under a gentle, blank overhang. Do the weird move up the flake and get a hand up high.There is a hold up there, and you will know it when you grab it (you definitely can't see any hold from the ground). Pull up and top out.

Extreme limits of your reach will be required. May not be humanly possible for short folks.

[Hide Comment] You'll be trespassing to get to Campjack rock and most of the three large outcroppings are on private land (including that largest rock). Get the owner's permission and a written slip so the rancher/lessee won't call the sheriff. The owner is at 307.635.0710 Oct 21, 2005
