Description Suggest change

Best power endurance boulder in the canyon. Start seated on DVD, climb that problem from right to left, then continue through the base of Ping and I Am Sam. Then continue through the v8/9 Lurp Sit problem (crux, and has more hard moves than when you traverse in from the right rather than starting seated), and then continue through this onto the slabs. Hold it together on the slabs until you hit the arete on the far left end, then top out.

Variations of this line include finishing around the corner, or on the heinous blank slab between powderbird and the left arete. 

Location Suggest change

Traverses all the way from the right of DVD to the left arete of the west face. 

Protection Suggest change

Nice to have a bunch of pads, but you'd need a shirtless beanie army to pad the whole thing.
