V5 | ★★★ Squatting Bear
Super classic sit-start to “Bear Huggies” and very pleasant for the grade. A Harvey's Marbles must do! FA: Steve Baskerville, 2002 | Harvey’s Marbles | |||
V0 | ★ The Horn
A nice beginner problem that can be started from numerous holds and heights, but it's best started low off on opposing sidepulls. | Harvey’s Marbles | |||
V2 | ★★★ Fall From Grace
"The Inner Circle" classic problem with lovely technical moves. Up the left leaning vague arête. This is normally done from a sit start, although the stand is no easier. FA: Madoc Sheehan, 1999 | Harvey’s Marbles | |||

V7 | ★★★ The Norwegian Way
Sit-start to screamer. Classic and sustained up a steep arete. The convenient block/flake is not in as a starting hold for the right foot. Note: The starting left side flake broke April 2024.
