War

V2 PG13, Boulder, 25 ft (8 m),  Avg: 2 from 1 vote
FA: Benjamin Houldridge, Jan, 2021
New Mexico > Albuquerque Area > Sandia Foothill… > Super Rock > Edwin Starr

Description

Start with hands in the crack and feet on the low large hidden hold. Move up the crack for a couple of feet then out left across the face on small crimps. Pull around the arete, and head up the slab to the top. Crux is definitely moving left on small holds. The best way off this boulder is down climbing “Glorified Jobs Program” on the far side, so make sure you're comfortable with that before committing.  

Location

South east corner of the boulder. Same start as “What is it Good For”. Last climb you come to as you walk clockwise around the boulder from the trail.

Protection

A pad or two. The landing is flat and clear for the crux. Fall up high, and the bush will reluctantly catch you. I like to have an extra pad for the downclimb or a friend to move one for me.
