A fun couple of moves. So much nicer with a pad. 25 year anniversary repeat.

So nice to not have to brush. 25 year anniversary repeat.

25 year anniversary repeat. Like climbing a billiard table.

So nice to see these boulders getting climbed. 3 rad variations with and without the sidepull from 1-4.

25 year anniversary repeat. tall

Love the mono. Cool slab straight up. 25 year anniversary repeat.

Snatchy start then cruise. 25 year anniversary repeat.

Good warmup. 1 is generous.

Good warmup and 2 cool moves. 1 is generous.

Love this one. So many goes to re-figure out what to do. Undercling the pocket. Not that one, not that one either, and right foot up. Flapper. Not a warmup but easy in the end.

Fat, 50 and unfit in February. 2 at most. Direct lap for giggles.

Fun. Straight forward pulling this time once brushed. Easier than I remembered.

Skip the $hit. Fun but soggy.

Graffiti Juice: start at Juice, undercling up to the crimp of Graffiti, last Juice hole and normal finish for a 2.

End of day. Decent conditions (in November!) makes this cruisy.

Everyone loves a highstep to cross-through backstep.

Not the way I expected. Look out Mr Hodgson!

Stunning line and super classy and committing climbing. Nowhere near a 3 though.

Very nice crack (V1/2) to death mantle.

Terrifying last move to nightmare mantle. Bring big pads and spotters, or a rope. Much harder than it looks (V2/3 and then the mantle). Everything on this wall needs pre-send brushing anyway.

For the pumpers it's a big move to slopey pocket then moderate move to slopey lip. Pulled most of the slopey lip off which was disconcerting.

And variants.

Direct bottom (crimps to throw), top (crimps) and bazillion variants (diagonal rail, obvious face crimp, etc) to the right is the pick at about 2/3.

Low traverse is the money. How many holds above the break can you skip? ... And obviously also in reverse.

Out to the glued ear for 3.

In flip flops. Seems overgraded.

Pumper. Straight up variant is good too and easier. Hitting the good part of the 2nd last hold is key.

Not as big as you think and better holds too.

Another undercling pocket crux. Not that hard if you skip the shit holds.

Undercling pocket crux. Easy once warmed up.

Maybe a 1.

Warmup in sandshoes. v2 on the moon perhaps.

Committing. Scary 3 if you top out direct.

2/3 Cool footwork to high left foot, straight up to sidepull, pocket, slap and jugs. This and brainwave make it worthwhile.

Devious cross-through undercling crux. I liked R->L slightly more.

The weak and timid person's Es Pontas. Surprising solid holds. Exciting top-out. A spotter would help the nerves, but the sand is soft and deep. I'm no J-Tree bouldering hardman.

27/28 before the mid-crux 'improvement' sometime post-2011. One of the best manufactured problems anywhere, with beautiful sequences, devious cruxes, tenuous smears, hidden holds (without a tick mark to be seen) and absolutely long and sustained. All in the perfect locale. A decade of infrequent visits and repeats, never bored. And it climbs both ways for double the value.

Always sandy, mind numbing traverse. Not even as a warm-up. Only to damage the heritage classic below it.

Historically I believe this problem was right to left (repeated this way) and around the crux arete for proper pumpy 4. Solid rock (barring sandy feet), cool pockets, good friction (tad sharp).

20th anniversary repeat. Hooray for fairy brushers. So many great problems from bumbly to bumpy under the moss.

20th anniversary repeat. Right hand pocket sidepull v2. Left hand pocket gaston v1. All in the feet.

Traverse from Jungle cat to here for ** 3.

Traverse from Jungle Cat to here for ** 3.

4 with a modicum of technique.

No piking left. Less worrisome with a spot.

Very soft for 6. The perfect boulder?

Very soft for six. Left sidepull instead of the undercling makes it very elegant. Easier if your under 6'

funky and a soft touch too.

twisty

Recent traffic has made it more skin friendly. Chuck laps or extend left to the tree for a sh1tty move and call it a 2.
