Description

This is a classic puzzler, with delicate moves on excellent rock. Follow the arching seam up and left until you can reach for the lip.

The short right arete also goes at "V-easy."

A very hard crimp line is possible by going out right to the tallest part of the boulder. I was getting close to the last hold below the lip but couldn't hang on.
