Description
Start standing just to the right of an obvious edge at 4 feet and use a triangular flake foothold and a slopey smear to step up onto the slab. From here, angle slightly left and then head up for a bit before slowly angling your way back right to eventually gain a large edge rail near the top of the boulder. Follow this large edge rail back leftwards for a couple of moves and then top out on good holds. Overall, the climb meanders a little as it follows the path of least resistance, but you end up topping out pretty much directly above the start of the climb.
The crux is located high off the deck with a long, tricky and sequential sequence capped by a reachy move to gain the large edge rail described above. Big falls are possible in this section!
A brilliant slab climb with technical and tenuous smearing and almost no defined handholds. A true test of technical skill and commitment and in my opinion one of the best slabs in Pawtuckaway. Kind of a tricky one to grade as it's arguably less about finger strength and more about your ability to stand on small, insecure feet.
Location
Located to the right of 'Zipper Junior'. This problem climbs center right of the large highball slab. (Not to be confused with the v4ish slab that climbs the left side of the slab.) This is also found in the same area as 'Vision Quest'.
