Notes: Epic!
This problem climbs all over the place on the amazing
green and black streaked Green Tea boulder. This problem
would be really good if it were'nt for the crumbly lichen
and rock near the top, as well as the sand filled holds
at the top. Aside from that, the climb is long, varied,
exciting, and tricky. Put up by yours truly...what the
heck was I thinking!
Start at the center left of the wall, at the prominent
black streak. A funky starting move leads to a crest of
knobs and jugs about 8ft. up. Traverse right 10ft. or
so and then go up at the large black streak on the right.
Awkward moves characterize the crux near the top of this
climb. Pull through to sandy holds. The problem tops out
at about 20ft. high.
