Unknown AKA Dreams of Gold
Description
Dreams of Gold is another great and wildly overhanging line at the Aircraft Carrier Boulders. Start sitting on some hand jams, then move up into a powerful sequence of positive (but sharp!) fingerlocks, eventually gaining some good hands again for a while. Top out by moving right onto the arete, and finish on a jug rail/easy chimney, which is another 15 feet or so to the top. The fall from the topout could potentially be dangerous, but it's all there, and you can easily inspect the holds before committing.
People with smaller hands might be able to get handjams at the beginning.
Location
This boulder is on private propery, please respect the landowners so we can continue to have access to this great area.
On the west side of the western Aircraft Carrier Boulder, it's in a massive cave. The best way to get to it is to go above the eastern Aircraft Carrier Boulder, traverse towards the west, and then drop down into the massive cave. GPS coordinates are: 39.4158225, -105. 2681033.
Protection
Pads and a spotter. A fall off the topout isn't recommended. Tape your fingers and hands, this boulder bites.
