Marla

FA: Josh Cothren
Illinois > Holy Boulders &… > Holy Boulders > K: Tyler Durden Area

Description

Starting sitting the same as Tyler Durden, cut left and move to a good pocket and do a large move to a jug. From here, go straight up and somehow execute a tricky, dirty and scary mantel off not good holds. Be mindful of the slightly sketchy flake out left. AKA "Marla and the Tree," for reasons that may be obvious when you arrive at the problem.

Location

Starts at the same place as Tyler Durden and cuts up and left. Walk off same as Durden. The tree behind the problem will make it easy to recognize.

Protection

Pads and a good spotter to help you avoid the tree
