This problem has suprisingly good movement for something that has been walked by and ignored for so long. It climbs a thin face and an arete. Start standing on the right side of the boulder with a two-hand blocky undercling and a large right foot. With the help of a sloper pinch on the arete and some small crimps out left, work up to a good incut crimp out left, and finally the jug at the peak of the boulder.
A sit start has been done at roughly the same difficulty, but is nowhere near as good.
Across from the Round Pond Boulder Area sign on the fireroad just up from Round Pond itself, there is a boulder with a red face (old spraypaint?).

[Hide Comment] Bad news guys, I broke the foot used for the stand start yesterday. It is much harder/not as fun as it used to be. The sit start still goes but overall the climb isn't as appealing as it used to be.
