Siberian Breaks

V4, Boulder, 9 ft (3 m),  Avg: 1 from 1 vote
FA: unknown
Colorado > Grand Junction… > Unaweep Canyon > Nine Mile Hill > Nine Mile Bould… > Reba Boulders > Reformation Rock

Description

Siberian Breaks climbs a slightly overhanging arete. The start of the problem is cramped, but the movement is enjoyable.

Sit start with a left hand sloper and a right hand on the arete. From there, bump the right hand up to a decent sidepull on the arete, then blindly bump the right hand again to an edge on the west face, bump through a small edge with the left hand on the face to a sharp edge, gain the edges above, and mantel on top.

Location

It climbs the west half of Reformation's northeast face.

Protection

At least a pair of pads. There is a rock directly in the landing that is unavoidable. It pads well though.
