Description

Stand start on the northeast arete with whatever hands suit your fancy. It won't matter much what hands you start with, as the problem is basically a glorified ladder. Nonetheless, the fact that it gets you more than a few feet off the deck might make worth your while. On the other hand, it is so easy, you might not really feel like your high up at all.

Location

This problem is located on the boulder's northeast arete. It's a pretty sharp corner, so it's hard to miss. A rock and a tree sit a few feet from the problem's start.

Protection

A pad and a spotter. There is a rock behind the starting area that you wouldn't want to tumble into if you fell, but falling typically shouldn't be an issue on this climb.
