Description

Fun problem and a good warm up. Stand start on some dishes and make big moves up the face to good holds. Above the lip there is a hidden jug pocket out left to make the mantle more secure.

Location

To the left, around the corner of the same boulder with G207. You walk past it on the trail to Eden.

Protection

A couple pads

[Hide Comment] Probably a bit easy for the grade but don't get on it if this is around your max unless there is a nice pit of foam below it, some rockstar spotters, or both. Nov 1, 2018

Fun Problem. The top out is pretty good, but I'd agree with Zane that foam pit and spotters are needed if you are going to project this because you can fall a lot of different ways Nov 15, 2020
[Hide Comment] The last hold before the top blew up on me today, sending me to the edge of my pads and about 15 feet back down the trail. I’m sure it still goes, but the new hold will need some cleaning. Sorry everyone Nov 8, 2021

[Hide Comment] Climbed this a couple weeks after orangekid broke the hold. Never climbed it before, but doesn't seem to have changed the difficulty. If you skip the broken hold, it does seem you'll send up further right on the lip and will have to make a move back left to the good pocket for the top out. Dec 13, 2021
