Jump to lip and mantle.

Match 2nd to last hold (slopey crimp rail) of Broken Flow and campus to Broken Flow jug and top out.

First move of Tea Bag Pilot Sit Start then head left and finish for Broken Flow.

Stand start on crimp rail. Make a big move to sloping top of boulder. Match on top and mantle/top out

Big move off minimal feet whereby you think you are going to lose all the skin off your RH. Used to be even more committing with a tree in the landing zone.

Sit start on Pockets, big move to crimpers then to sloping top of boulder to top out.

Start as for Jake the Muss, then traverse left and finish left of Teabag Pilot via a jug on the summit.

Start with left hand in the RH start hold of Jake the Muss. RH in a shallow crimp. Big move to a very small crimp, then straight up. Now reclimbed since crux RH crimp broke 2012-ish.

Ultra low start to Slim Slow Slider that also bypasses the 'shallow jug' (or 1st move) of that problem. Start MATCHED with both hands on the very low horizontal (the normal foothold), move into the start hold of SSS, then finish up that problem without the use of the 'shallow jug' aka the hold above the bucket start hold of SSS.

Probably been climbed on by many in the past, so please hit me up if you know the names of the original lines or first ascents

Stand Start at bottom of slab, work way up to the top using crimps and top out. Climbed by many in the past.

A little contrived. Sit start on right side of boulder, work along arete (feet off man slab), until top, then traverse left (feet back on main slab) and finish as per Welcome to Slab School.

A good one for the kidlets - head straight up slab, crack to the left is off limits.
