Description Suggest change

This problem is pretty beta intensive but not overly difficult. There are a couple of moves that feel weird but are solid. Holds are good. You should ideally sit-start with a drop knee in your left leg while kind of in a splits position. The start feels awful until you do it. Once you pull yourself up on the two far apart holds you won't mess it up again. Dyno to the hold high above your left hand. Use the crack to top out. This problem is named to honor Max's 4 fingers which lost a ton of skin. The dyno hold is almost a jug, it's amazing but it is SO sharp. Tape might be nice.

Moves are weird enough and beta intensive enough to make this a V4, but they don't require a ton of strength so we decided on a meager V4-.

Location Suggest change

This problem resides on the backside of boulder B, inside the little alcove. 

Protection Suggest change

Pads and spotters are highly recommended. There is a big boulder directly behind and left of where you are climbing, and a fall could result in a nice smacking of your head on the rock. Put a pad on the big boulder on the ground, lest you hurt your back.
