Access Issue: Private Property - Access Sensitive
Details
The cliff band is on private property and has recently changed hands, which created some potential access issues. There are a number of "No Trespassing" signs on the land.
The owner of the property is alright with climbers being there. However, the "No Trespassing" signs will stay up, and are only there to "protect himself."
The landowner has also said that he is very pleased with what he's found out about the climbers and the etiquette of the area. He researched it online and found that we've always been very respectful of our privilege to climb there and that we value that privilege greatly.
With that being said, Bozoo is fair game for climbing. AS ALWAYS: BE RESPECTFUL OF THE PROPERTY AND THE AREA. NOT DOING SO COULD RESULT IN ITS PERMANENT CLOSURE.

Description
Worth you time if you are playing on this boulder, but not the most obvious line due to the blankness of the wall. Just to the right of "The Hershey Kiss" you will see a blank section of rock leading up to the high slab above. Start with a left hand on a brick of a jug in the crack and the right on your choice of incuts in the seam. Move up to a right hand slopey undercling and a left hand slopey sidepull just below the lip. Hit the seams over the lip and bust out a very committing mantle. Good bit of pucker factor for the height! If this mantle is easy for you, see "Ankle Grader" at the dugout.
Moving right to the left facing jug at the lip is not the problem and will sucker you off route.
Placeholder name - I tagged it this based on a large 30lb flake that pulled off from the slab from a previous ascent by Mr. Bernard a few years back. Lemme know if you know a proper name.
