Description

Swim your way through the boulderers camped around the interlaced pocket lines. Look for a nice two finger pocket that you can reach from the ground if you're on your tippy toes. Can't reach it? Pull a nice cheater rock into the start zone. A couple of hard moves off the deck gets you to a big pocket. Exit left into the corner. Head up and right through easier terrain to the anchor - watch for marginal rock in the corner. 

Marcus says you do the full boulder into it. The full boulder being V6, V8, V9 or whatever other link-up you would like. 

Location

Look for a pair of hooks under the roof ~4 m off the deck. Don't go to these, follow the bolt line to the left and exit through the corner. Take a moment to spot the bolts before you leave the ground, the 3rd bolt is a bit difficult to see. 

Protection

4 bolts, hooks
