Description Suggest change

Start with hands matched on a good low lip. Throw high to a good left hand jug. In the beta photo, I have marked the jug with an "X". After that, bring your right to a crimp. Grab a knob for your left, and then go for the jugs on top of the boulder.

Whether the good ledges below the main portion of the boulder are on or not is debatable. This problem would be possible if you avoided the low ledge, but making the big throw would be very, very difficult. You might be able to find some intermediate holds to avoid the throw and thereby avoid using the low ledge, but I think those variation would also be much more difficult. If you crush, then by all means, destroy my wimpy ledge-using beta.

Location Suggest change

This problem is on the northwest prow of the Forgotten Block.

Protection Suggest change

Pads and spotters. The landing under this problem has some large ankle-rolling rocks sticking out of the ground. Fall gracefully if you must fall.
