Subject: Frank's Direct
Rating: V4/5
Quality: 3 star
Location: Tram
Notes: Classic

The classic on Frank's Boulder, Frank's Direct climbs the center of the large overhang on this quite popular piece of rock. Discovered by Frank Cornelius, and first climbed by either Frank himself, Andy Blair, or Rob Mulligan.

The problem starts tricky, at a flat sidepull with meager footing. Bust a move to a horizontal crack/rail, work right to two thin tramslots, up to a sidepull crimp, and then finally to a second horizontal crack/rail. Finishes with a mantel at a funky sidepull jug 14ft. off the ground.
