[Hide Comment] Another cool variation on this boulder is to start on Dem Bones and climb into Better Than Coffee. This might be the original line that was rated V6 in an early guide. Dec 27, 2010

[Hide Comment] Start as low as possible. Glassy feet and fun moves provide more than just the v1 stand start. Oct 21, 2013
[Hide Comment] Totally V1 if your a stiff sandbagger. May 28, 2018
