Stand start with good holds, angle left up the slabby face to finish on the top jug for problem #3 (see area overview photo). There's a brief, techy section as you head left over the overhang. A sit can be added using holds at the base where the slab transitions to the overhang, similar grade.

Tree Boulder Traverse

Sit start on right side of the overhang.  Climb up to lip and pull over on crimps to shallow pocket to top out.

Stand start and a line of excellent edges and holds will lead you right up this featured slab, ending just right of the high point of the boulder. Variations exist: going right makes generally easier, left generally harder.

An eliminate variation of problem #2 (see area overview photo). Sit start down underneath overhang, up to the big rail, but then iron cross out left to an obvious crimp, continue up rejoining Tree Boulder Traverse, problem #2. This problem skips the triangle pinch used in problems 2 & 3. While the boulder itself is not quite 20 feet tall, the zigzagging route up is about 20 feet; the crux is at a comfortable height and the top eases up. 

Sit start underneath the overhang and make a reachy move up to the big rail. Go up to the triangle pinch (probably want right hand here, just saying...), but then go left towards the tree. Top out just right of the tree using more pinch blocks and a short prow. While the boulder itself is not quite 20 feet tall, the zigzagging route up is about 20 feet; the crux is at a comfortable height and the top eases up.

Boulder identified by overhang to slab features, small tree growing at northern corner.
