Boulder X
Description
Start standing in the middle of the arrowhead shaped boulder on some decent incut holds, the taller they are the easier the problem is. put on a foot and grab the lip, match and get a high right foot, then prepare to roll over onto your right foot as the hands that wait for you will offer little assistance with pulling the lip. Heel hook, slap, and use precise feet to send the crux mantle of this climb! You'll scare yourself on the crux of this great line.
Make sure your spotter is paying attention. In Fall 2005 a spotter received an elbow to the head on this climb and got a cracked skull and had to be transported out by the forest service/fish and game.
Location
Hike 50ft towards pond from terrorist boulder. the problem faces the pond so you won't see it till you walk past it and turn around to look back at terrorist boulder. It usually is pretty heavily chalked.
Protection
Pads and spotters. Beware! a spotter one year ago received massive blunt trauma to his skull courtesy of a climbers elbow whilst falling off the top.
