Description

Brute force your way through an extremely difficult (for 12b) move at the beginning, gallivant up some massive jugs, then enjoy what would be a classic boulder problem if it were at the bottom rather than the top of Rumbling Bald.

[Hide Comment] Despite the chossy starting hold, this is a great steep sport climb for Rumbling Bald.

Crank a hard move right off the bat (V3 or 4?) and climb big holds interspersed with crimps, culminating in a redpoint crux right before the mega finishing holds. Description does the quality of the top boulder problem due justice.

Fixed nut is in good condition as of today. Apr 5, 2015
