Over The Handlebars

V1, Boulder, 12 ft (4 m),  Avg: 2 from 2 votes
FA: unknown
Minnesota > Blue Mounds SP… > Bouldering @ Bl… > Bur Oak Trail > Farmhouse Boulders

Description

Start sitting on the trail to the right of the boulder as you look from the trail.. but sit -left- of the rock holding the boulder on its south west side slightly beneath the rock. Stay exclusively on the boulder (especially your right foothold as you start). Move up to the highest part of the boulder. Crux is getting to your 1st or 2nd hand holds.

Location

-The- smallish Farmhouse boulder which is a really unique landmark feature right on the trail (but it is pretty short as Jon Marek states).

Protection

pad but have someone spot you behind the rock and next to the tree in case you peel to your right

Me (Ethan) as I start and get ready for the crux. Your right foot should not be touching the lower rock as it seems I am in this pic..

[Hide Comment] If you start as indicated, it's a good warm-up for other routes. First two moves are obviously key and the most fun.. Jun 4, 2017
