Description Suggest change

Seriously morpho, and a very unique climb for Joe’s. Begin sitting on a low jug all the way down and right on the main arete of the boulder. Work up the bad arete all the while sitting in a huge left toehook. Eventually the holds on the arete run out and using a horrible right foot smear, the toehook must be released as you jump for a distant jug higher on the arete. Either top out here, or continue up the arete until its apex, as the original line was done (V11 PG-13).

Counter Clockwork is unique to JV as it has almost no face holds, and is a sunny, skin friendly arete, although it is incredibly morpho. V10-12 depending on height, as the holds used to jump to the jug may be impossible to reach for anyone under 5’10. 

Location Suggest change

The main (and only) line on the boulder. SDS at the bottom of the beautiful arching arete. That climbs from right-left on the boulder. 

Protection Suggest change

Pads. Flat landing with a potential back slapper rock at the finish, though it isn’t really an issue.
