Shoehorn

V1+, Boulder, 12 ft (4 m),  Avg: 2.7 from 50 votes
FA: unknown
California > Central Coast > Santa Barbara > Santa Barbara… > Brickyard > Owl Farm

Description

Sit-start on jugs on the left side of the overhang and climb the steep face on good incuts. The jug at the top flexes quite a bit, so tread lightly as you pull to the lip of the boulder.

Location

Ocean's 11 calls this area "The Owl Farm", it's off to the left as you come down the trail to the Yard.

[Hide Comment] This problem has some pretty fantastic movement in it, too bad there are only a few moves. Top hold still flexes a bit, but nobody should be pulling to hard on it at that point, be careful on it anyways. May 8, 2014

[Hide Comment] Could also start on the jug on the right side, doesn't make it too much harder but adds some more fun movement May 17, 2020
