[Hide Comment] Are you supposed to start directly under the tree on the face or on the corner? Because the lowest boulder problem on the face is very thin with pretty bad feet and, dare I say it, might bump the grade up from 10- to 10+ or 11-. I could've just found terrible beta though. Sep 20, 2020
