Stand start on a small crimp rail on the left side of the face.  Climb straight up on small and slopey crimps.  Avoid the left arete.

Start on a flat edge about head height, find the holds, and climb straight up the center of the face.

Sit start the arete on the left side of the North Face with your left hand on the good ledge, and your right hand pinching the arete.  Clime the arete until you can reach left to the obvious rail on the face.  Match the rail and grab holds around the corner to top out.

Classic in every sense of the word, and my vote for the single best problem in the entire boulderfield.

This is the easiest way to the top of the Arrowhead, and provides a good intro to the character of the boulder: highball slabby goodness. This is also the easiest way off the boulder, so be sure you can down climb back off of it once you've sent.

Start by stepping off the rock to the left, and follow good rails through the tall black face.

Sit start matched on the slopey orange horizontal break.  Move left to a block on the arete, then continue up the arete.  Reachy.

Slick 50 has two different starts; the original stand start, and the somewhat paradoxical sit start, which is actually easier.

For the original, stand start on the mediocre underclings, and crank the powerful crux move out to the arete.  Work your way up the arete until you make a small jump to a pinch.  From here top out to the right via a somewhat technical and scary mantle.

For the sit start, start on a decent undercling on the bottom left side of the face.  Slap to the arete, avoid the rock beneath you, and work your way up.  Top out the same as the stand start.

As far as I know, either start is considered a legitimate ascent of the boulder.  The sit start may be a little on the soft side for a V8, while the stand start feels pretty damn hard for an 8.  I also think the sit start loses a bit of quality due to the fact that the crux move for me was not dabbing on the rock.

This is a very fun climb that uses a cool sloper.  There's also a big rock in the landing zone that adds some fun spice.

Stand start on the angled crimp rail at about head height.  Move right to the sloper, then right again to a good crimp rail.  Top out straight above.

A classic old school highball of the boulder field.  Not quite as good as the South face, but a bit headier at the top.

Climb up the slab on good holds until you reach the lip, where the hold get smaller.  Find the un-mossy holds on top, and commit.
