Description
A classic and comitting boulder defined by an intriguing scooped lip. One of the best of its grade at the Fire Tower, and in my opinion, the whole park.
Sit start with a good left hand crimp and the right hand compressing the arete. Gun for the crimp on the face and commit to the slopey topout above a dicey landing.
Given PG-13 due to the slab and rock spike that are almost under the topout. Landing on them doesn't seem out of the question; probably best to hang a pad for cover.
Location
Uphill and right of Born to Thrutch/Hot Air Skyway. If you are looking directly at Mr. Big, turn right, and that area is on the other side of the cliffbands. Go right around the cliffs, and you should pass Tip to Tip Rocketship, Jabberwocky, and Born to Thrutch (all facing downhill). Keep following the cliffs and Beagle Lips is at the top corner of that ampitheatre.
