Description

Sit start next to Rio’s problem and make a few hard moves to a juggy flake system and mossy top out.

Location

About five feet right of Rio's Problem you will spot the huge juggy flake.

Protection

A few pads if you want to be safe, but keep in mind they will get wet because the landing is essentially the river.

[Hide Comment] Supposed to be a sit start. I think that would explain the large difference in difficulty. The whole crux was getting off the ground and into the crack. Oct 30, 2016

[Hide Comment] Starting from the big "stalactite" undercling is a nice V1 jug haul up the crack. Starting in that position and eliminating the giant jug crack on the left to climb up on face holds is a nice maybe V2+ eliminate, fun if not trivial, with at least one bit of beta that will give new climbers something to think about.
