Short problem on slopers. Start left hand on a low sidepull, right hand on a decent sloper scoop. Fire up to the good sloper at the lip.

A neat slab climb with interesting moves. Stand start with left hand on the decent sloper rail and right on a two finger sidepull. Move straight up the face, bumping left hand up the rail and right to more crystals, aiming for the one good edge up high. Bad feet.

The left arete is a fun V2.

The face to the right is "Piece of Cake" V7

Let me know if this has been done before. Definitely between the lines but is fairly obvious.

Start on ramp and climb left arete to a delicate mantle. Technical crux is low.

Start with hands wide, left hand in sidepull and right-hand good edge. PUll on and move into the first crimp used for timber. Now move straight up the face on thin edges. Move up and right to finish it up. You climb over the boulder to the right, so take care not to blow the middle and top out moves. Refer to beta image for route intention.

Weird first move to good edges and a weird top out.

Sit start on far left side of the boulder and climb the arete

Start on the left arete of the timber boulder matched on a big jug. Move up the arete and right to the apex of the boulder and top out. Smile, you just had fun, sort of. Refer to the image for the  intended route.

A burly variation on the Pawn Stars boulder.

Start with the left hand undercling and right hand matched on the sloper gaston. Pull on and hit the right hand sloper on the lip, then bump up more slopers over the bulge.

Unsure on grade, anywhere from V8-V10 perhaps

Sit start (bad low left sidepull, good RH crimp), gain good crimps and then hop to the huge jug up and right.

Start with the left hand on sloper pinch and right hand on small sidepull crimp under the roof. Make one hard move and top out on Fools Gold

From BB: Start on a positive edge for the LH and a small sidepull for the RH. Hit the lip, then a weird move to gain the top.

V10 Sit Start. Jeff Webb FA'd both, even though he forgot.

This problem starts low as and rightmost on the lip by a large tree root, on the boulder just left of Blue Steel when looking west, or down canyon. Start either with arms wrapped around the root (try not to dab), or for full value start scrunched with both arms right of the root. Traverse the full lip and mantle at the end. A very fun weird problem if you're in the area!

Start match on high edge to the right then go left and up. Top out either by pulling around the corner onto the slab or go straight up. Both feel about the same, going straight up is more exciting.

Amazing movement on a cool rail with a couple of surprisingly (huh huh!?) technical bits before you gain the arete start of Surprise, and then finish on that problem. Turns Surprise from a power/technical boulder into a bit more of a power endurance experience. Very nice!

This is an worthwhile, though not entirely pleasant, techy vert line on small churt holds. Worth doing if you climb harder than v5, so that this comes fairly quickly. You don't want to have to spend a lot of time on it. Also more worth it to do this if don't mind using a slick single pad crimp. The top out is a gritty rail that currently crumbles at the touch.

Start on the jug for Jason V1.

From the Black Bible: "Variation: V3.  Head up the sidepull features on the right"

This was a really fun variation, so I felt it was worth putting on Mountain Project

On the face of timber starting in the offset. (see photo for start hands, circled in red). Start left hand on good pinch and right sloper/undercling, pull on and move right hand to sloper edge. Finish up as Timber.

Sit start on good jug and move up to crimps and then deadpoint good jug on the lip to the right.

This balancy low ball starts on two small crimps on the lower left side of the face. Move right staying below the rail and reach a low side crimp far out to the right (contrived, but fun!), then go for the jug on the far right to top out.

Mantle straight up without going out to the side crimp for a V3.

Start standing with right hand on the ramp and left hand at the same level on the arête. Work your way up the arête with dynamic moves followed by a perplexing top out over the bulging lip.

A high quality slab with a couple gnarly moves to get established. Start on the two obvious crimps and climb straight up.

Climb the shallow dihedral feature just on the slight corner on the right side of the west face. When we did it, we started with right hand on the sidepull and left hand on the lower edge. A lower start would go, but it seemed pretty contrived.

Start with left hand on slopy pinch and right hand around the arete. Figure out how to match the left hand start hold and go up.

Top is harder than it looks

Climb straight up the face using only the face holds. Start on the rail, right hand up to undercling above head height, left hand to a slanted crimp, right hand to crystal and then exit on the top moves of surprise.

Start with left hand crimp right hand sidepull. Make one move to the lip and top out

Not the best boulder, but it does exist. Safety goggles would be nice for all the flaking rock, dirt, and lichen heading for your eyeballs.

If it were clean, it would probably be very nice. The moves themselves, one can imagine, would be fun on clean rock.

Big/insecure move up right to a juggy rail.

Start on Stacie's Arete, the traverse the lip and top out on Ringer

Very thin and tall problem.

Start on the jugs about 5ft up and climb the slab.

The top out is a little scary hehe

A tricky little problem, as eluded to by the name. It's a fun test of footwork and your ability to problem solve. Start sitting in the corner at the far right side of the boulder and use both sides of the wall to head up the seam and top out on the final slab.

sit start on good jug, move up and left around arete.

Slopey arete then rock over the slab and tip toe up 8 feet of mossy, low angle slab.

Stand start might be of Garth's Roof.

RH on sidepull, LH on sloper/sidepull (at shoulder height ). Head up.

Compression roof moves to a very slopey arete then rock over the slab and tip toe up 8 feet of mossy, low angle slab.

Sit start with left hand under roof and right hand on the arete.  Squeeze the arete and flake to a decent hold on the arete. Throw a high heel, and negotiate the slopey arete- gunning for a nice rail at the base of the slab. Haul yourself over the lip, and enjoy some friction slab to the top.

Nice problem to work alone.  Stand start might be V4.

Do the first move of Ringer and then mantle for the top out. Arete is off.
