Mouse Trap

UPDATED 

Description

A unique bouldery start using lots of opposition will get you to the cheese (jugs).  Once in the cheese you are trapped (it's much easier to continue up than to climb back down).  Originally free soloed.  Can be lead with gear or considered a V3 high-ball boulder problem.  Descend the 'King On the Throne' down-climb 30 feet climbers left of the route or rappel off anchors on the other side of the rock.

Location

Approximately 15 feet left of the route 'Jug World'.  Look for a blank section of rock with a series of white quartz dikes (see photo for start).

Protection

Trad gear or free solo on easy and enjoyable terrain once past the initial crux.
