On the road side face of the Barn Door Boulder, just right of Hemlock Crack.

Protection

Pad and spotter.

[Hide Comment] Great climb, but definitely felt like a one-move wonder to me, particularly compared to most of the bouldering at Rumney. Oct 2, 2013

[Hide Comment] I did a sit start to this today starting down and right. Left hand is the starting foot rail for the stand and right foot is a small crimp out right. Pull up and move right hand into the right hand starting crimp of the stand and work your left hand up small crimps to get into the stand proper. Felt maybe v5-. Dec 4, 2013
