To make the Jug from it the block you will test your core strength and finger strength. there are a couple ways to do this problem, it takes a little bit to find the one that feels V3.

A better name for this would be 'Barn Door Indirect" or 'The Barn Ladder'. Anyone have an objection to me changing the name to something that represents the climb a bit better? Jun 30, 2015

I changed the name to The Barn Ladder. Seems like a better fit. Sep 15, 2015

It would be super helpful to see some pictures for these routes. I'll try to take some next time I'm out there and post them up so someone can edit them to show start holds and line of travel. I thought I was doing Barn Door Direct Direct.

I ended up crossing RH to a slopey crimp up high, got a higher left foot stood up and caught the jug LH. I didn't use the sharp crimp on the arete that Bad Ladder uses (the second/lh start of bad ladder). Sep 18, 2016
