Description

A very large boulder just south of the classic "Iron Man Traverse". This boulder is home to many problems including "Standing on the Shoulders of Giants" which is only climbable with a ladder and a sea of pads, and the incredible arete "Constellation". There are also many easier problems on the boulder with the same start as "Constellation" in the crack, but they veer left rather than staying true to the arete.

Getting There

If you are looking at the "Iron Man Traverse", look off to your right and you will see a very large boulder with a unique crack system near the bottom of it. There is also a smaller boulder which is adjacent to a long arete.
