[Hide Comment] Great problem. A must climb if your at the flats. Jul 5, 2010
[Hide Comment] One of the best boulders at HF IMO. Ray Palmer introduced me to this problem in 1968. He learned about HF from Sierra Club old-timers. Apr 8, 2013

[Hide Comment] Awesome problem. Tall and intimidating. If you're a new climber bring strong mental game even though the landing is good. Jul 23, 2020
