Description
I'm not a local but thought it was weird this wasn't on MP.
Slap your way up the striking knife of rock to an exhilarating topout.
Location
This is on the same large boulder as Real Large (V9) and Purple Drank (V7-8). Go past the left turn off for The Kind Boulder 30 feet or so (closer to Emerald Lake), and look to the right. You should see this large boulder from the trail. With your back to the trail, you'll see Purple Drank. Going around the left side of the boulder you'll see Real Large and finally Tommy's Other Arete.
Start sitting with a left-hand sloper and an opposing right-hand edge (see videos).
