Description Suggest change

*Listed for historical reasons.

Sadly, the big flake that makes for the classic start to this problem finally exfoliated in early May 2024, rendering this problem is no longer. LI stewards Eric M and Matt C established the new beta on what is now an easier sit start, Scary Crimps V5 (the name for the former stand start).

---

Description of old problem below:

Start sitting with both hands matched on a large flake at 3 feet as you find comfortable. Throw a high left heel up and make a long move to a small crimp with the right hand. Fall into a sloper with the left and use it to gain a better edge for the right hand. A long move leads to a pair of good crimps and a tall top out.

Though the movement is interesting, the awkward rock at the start and less than comfortable holds make this boulder only so so.

Location Suggest change

This climb is about 12 feet to the right of 'Fisherman's Friend'. Look for the obvious large, low flake.

Protection Suggest change

A few pads are helpful.
