Ox in Flight

V7, Boulder,  Avg: 3 from 2 votes
FA: Andrew Press
California > San Diego County > N San Diego County > Mt Woodson > S Slope

Description

Stand Start matched on seam/crack at head height, bring up right foot on small edge and lock off left arm and move right hand to sloper/intermediate then to slopping crimp. Left hand move to sloper then again to a better crimp. Work the edges and mantle out!

Note: the original line Flight of the Ox started higher on two crimps. But at some point the right hand crimp was broke off, leaving only a left hand crimp. In the photo the red line is the original line, the 'x' is where the broken start hold was.

Location

I prefer the trail from TV Screen Boulder to Slant Crack, then head on a trail west until you reach the east side of the boulder, look for the 'fang' feature on the southeast side of the boulder.
