Description

Start hands matched on a good lip--which is unfortunately hard to see in the beta photo--and get your feet on. Move up and left to a good juggy crimp. From there, move up through a dish and scattered good holds.

If you're only going to climb one of these problems, do this one. If you climb the intended line, the first couple moves are pretty fun.

Location

This problem starts with to the right of the little tree with on the plate/lip feature above the bottom right corner of the tiny roof feature on the boulder's east face.

Protection

A pad. Also a spotter if you're worried about flying it the bush underneath the problem.
