Description Suggest change

Start low on the right side of the overhung south face in the obvious (and awesome) two part cavity. Move right and then up the southeast arete to an easy top out. Raspberry Jam is a pure line with incredible movement, varied holds, and lots of fun. The route name is a little hint at the beta I used to get through the first few moves.

Given the boulder's history, I'm fairly sure that this route has been done before. "Boston Rocks" mentions a climb of the southeast arete as being V4 from a sit and is listed under the name Taper. It is unclear however where this route starts and its exact line of travel. From the starting hold I used, which makes a short traverse into the arete, it felt like V5 to me, but maybe there's an easier beta that I missed as well.

It is on the right side of the overhanging south face and moves up the southeast arete.

Protection Suggest change

Crashpads - 2 are sufficient, but the more the merrier.
