Description

The rightmost arete on the large, triangular boulder. Start with both hands on a huge shelf and move up and left using some tricky crimps and slopers. Two big jugs tame the top out, but you'll finish with a healthy amount of air under your feet

Location

On the large, central boulder with Danger Pony and King of the Bongo. Take the right arete to the top

[Hide Comment] I pummeled the remnant flake at the bottom of this problem--my apologies to the FAist, I was unaware at the time that a route was already here. Adds a couple moves from a sit start, and brings the grade and quality up a bit, in my opinion. I also used the excess rock to shore up the landing. Jul 13, 2020
