Out of the Comfort Zone

Description

An incredibly gymnastic problem! Start at a crouch with both hands matched on an incut angular jug under the boulder. Get your feet on and do a big move to a sloper with your left hand. Now the fun begins! Bump the sloper to a better dish/jug and attempt to get both feet matched with double toe-hooks in the dish! Let loose of the starting jug with your right hand and now unhook your feet and spin around right-side up. Next establish higher above the roof using the incut horizontals and work you way up a few crimps and edges to the exciting slopey top out. (As will all Triassic top-outs, you may want to identify and brush the top out holds pre-send!)

Location

Pass through the corridor to the left of Busted Up (the obvious v5 arete). The Hucklebuck will be on your right as you immerse from the squeeze corridor. It is on the same boulder as Busted up. Multiple ways down, with the easiest being to down -chimney the aforementioned corridor.

Protection

A couple of pads and a spotter- typical sandy and slopey triassic top-out.
