Description

Stand start the obvious arete to the left of 'Nose Picker'. Start left hand on a good side pull on the left of the arete and right on a small crimp on the right side. Pick some feet and make a long move to the good hold up and right, work your way to the good holds on the top.

Looks like a sit start is possible starting in the corner left of the arete. Im sure it has been done, I have not tried it however.

Location

On the Smiley Boulder left of the obvious nose feature called 'Nose Picker' stand start the short arete.

Protection

Pad and spotter.

[Hide Comment] In the new guidebook it looks like they are calling this one Cotton Button (V1) and have Lemon Drop (V1) immediately to the right of it. Not that it matters, really :) Mar 25, 2018
