Routes as boulder in Bouldering in Lukenya

Starts deep in a hole and climbs out arete. Tops out to the left. Boulder to right is off.

Start low on obvious crimps, navigate to the big horizontal rail then a huge move up to the higher horizontal slot above, and easy top-out

Start to the left of Dump Truck, on wide crimps. Two powerful moves to a top out to the left of dump truck.

Start one move in from Dump Truck on obvious horizontal. Navigate right to a big move and an easy top out.

Follow the crimps up the left-hand side of the face, and struggle over or under the tree branch at the top.

Sit-start on the far left of the boulder, get established on good hand-holds and traverse on these to top out on the small boulder on the right.

Crimpy sit-down start.

Round the side from iceberg, good warm-up. Pretty vertical on crimps. Don't let go!

Starts in the juggy crack on the left, follows the crack up right to the dihedral and goes straight up. A really nice climb with an airy top out. The small tree in the middle of the line is off!

Far right of the boulder. Sit start at the bottom of the obvious rail, and move up and right using a combo of powerful moves and heel hook trickery. Mantle up and over onto the slab, and walk up to finish.

Up the face on the left side of the boulder next to Treehugger.

Up the middle of the boulder, traverse left on crimps, then same top out as Treehugger

Far right of the boulder. Sit start with you right hand on the rail and left hand on an undercling jug. Powerful moves up to a crimp and then the overhanging rail, before topping out on the same finish as Laura.

Straight up the slab on pebbles to the top. Avoid arete on right and large feature on left (slab only pure and simple)

Sit-down start on good rail, moves up the rail and over the lip. Avoid dabbing on the tree that is directly under you. Tricky one to spot and pad.

On the boulder with a tree in front of it just to the right of Nightcrawler.

Sit-down start on the arete, left hand on good side pull and right hand on lowest crimp, starts up the arete and then takes a big swing to the face of the overhang with a very tricky mantle to the top. A true Lukenya test-piece.

Highball. Crouch start below and right of the horizontal crack on a pinch and an edge, moves left following the crack and then goes straight up.

Go up the easy broken rock to the right of Kenyan Cowgirl.

Mental. Traverse left and up on good holds, just don't swing off and down the big drop underneath.

Sit-down start matched on really nice jug, moves left and up with a big move to a nice edge up at the lip. One of Lukenya's best!

Sit-down start on the same jug as Chicken Head, moves right and up. (Very tensiony for shorter climbers and probably a full grade harder due to the heinous intermediate side-pull crimp before the jug near the top.)

Stand start on the left side of the boulder, traverse across the middle of the face, and finish up the same moves as Rooster Tail. Pumpy!

A fun and delicate climb up the left of the boulder. Start on same holds as for Kuku kienyeji, then move left and up using small holds and a sidepull to the top, always staying left of Chicken head holds. A good spot is needed to protect from the tree behind.

Highball. Stand start and go straight up the face. A really nice technical boulder problem. Avoid using boulder on the right, though it could possibly be a V0 variation if used.

On the face round the side from Ripple - unclimbed VHard project. Start on obvious holds to the right of the far left arete and climb small crimps to a big move and an easy topout.

Low start on compression of the block that looks like a boat near a pile of trash. Compress your way up to the throne topout.

Travel on jugs on overhanging face above Chicken Head.

Start on small crimps on right face of arete on block to the right of upper roost warmup. Landing better than it looks.

Same start as Oversize Shorts with low left traverse and finishes up Carolyn's Baby. Really fun moves on the overhung traverse.

Crouch start on far right of prow, traverses just a few moves left and then up the face

Sit-down start matched on low slot edge, goes straight up on great slopers edges and incuts.

Start on left most holds in the whale’s mouth and finish on the top out of oversized shorts.

The line furthest left, or deepest inside the whale's mouth. Short but with a tricky first move. Stand-start on the lowest usable holds and a high foot, straight up through the horizontal break and slanting crack above.

Up the boulder using the feature that looks like a satellite dish.

This is the obvious easiest line on the boulder. It's juggy all the way up and easily doable for most climbers in flip flops.

Sit-down start with left hand on rail and right on low crimp, moves up the short problem using slopey compression and crimps. It's a nice lowball.

Sit-down start with left hand low on arete and right hand on a very low undercling, moves a few moves up the arete and then traverses right across and up a the slab. Avoid going all the way up arete or around on the left side.

Sit-down start (almost lying) on low jug and goes straight up the right side of the boulder.

Up the easiest part of the boulder with lots of textured holds and good feet. Stand-start. Good for first-timers outside or for a quick warm-up.

Ascend the boulder using the flake on its left-hand side. STand-start.

To the right of Cheerio, where there is an orange band of smooth rock on the lower half of the face. Stand-start on small feet and the lowest decent handholds. Straight up from there.

Stand-start on the lowest-usable crimps. Hard first move to a decent hold, straight up from there.

To the right of Special K. Stand-start on the lowest good holds. Find your feet and go straight up.

Start low in the cave on a crimp rail and up to bigger jug (left of razorback start holds). Up and left the steep face on small crimps, avoiding any of the larger razorback holds to the right. Join razorback for the topout only. Would be 3* if not a bit of an eliminate!

Sit start on low rail. Make big move up to the crimp and commit to the top out.

Nice warmup for the other two, with an interesting topout. Sit-start on the obvious hold on the right of the boulder, going to another good hold with quite a big move, then up again. Keep your nerve for the topout, the holds are there. Spotter should jump on top of the boulderer if they fall to avoid tumbling down the rock behind!

Beautiful line going up the arete, avoiding Razorback holds until the jug for the topout. Sit start low to the left of the arete, come round to the right of it to a good crimp, then a big move up the slanting crack. Keep it together and go for the finishing jug before the same topout as Razorback.

Crouch start in full compression. Climb the fridge trending left to the top out.

Takes the proud south-facing face and the two aretes. Start with a right hand on the arete on the rigth and a left on a crimp in the centre of the face. Work your way up with compression magic. Spotter for the FA was tied into a rope anchored on a nearby tree to avoid a tumble down the cliff below and protect the climber!

Take the overhanging crack from right to left. Still unclimbed.

Start with right hand on good crimp and left on your choice of bad holds lower down. Pick between two poor choices of of foot beta and make two moves to the lip and top out. The sit-start from the two lowest crimps remains to be done.

Starts crouched. Straight up the face on good holds, just don't look down at the top to avoid fantaing your trousers.

Same start as Golden Power, bail right around the arete.

Start on arete, make your way left onto face and then straight up through big powerful moves.

Sit start, hands on the lowest holds. Only the arete is in.

Sit start, both hands in the crack. Up the crack and left onto the half-way ledge. Straight up from there.

Interesting problem with potential for varying jams and holds. Low sit start to establish, avoiding the boulder to left for whole problem, otherwise quality and difficulty is massively compromised.

Crouch start with both hands in the big crack, on the left. Go straight up from there, avoiding Weakness Protection Programme which is further right.

Very similar to Witness the Weakness, but start further right with hand in the big crack and go up slghtly better holds over the top.

Go up the arete opposite Witness the Weakness. Start on jugs on the left for easier, lower on crimps on the right for harder.

Easy warm-up or beginner lowball. Traverse left to right with hands on jugs on the arete.

Start on the slab on the left. Go up and right.

Start on small crimps in the mdidle of the face. Up and right to finish.

Start far right and trasverse left and up to finish.

Nice. #juggy

Sit-down start on low jug and goes up left of arete on good crimps.

Same start hold as Farasi and goes left on a powerful traverse and topout.

Sit-start low to the right of the arete, go up on crimps and big left-hand gaston staying right of arete to the top.

Sit-start from a squarish hold under the arete. Powerful first move up to a crack, then easier but fun moves up the arete to finish.

Sit-start at the furthest right and lower point of the big diagonal cracks. Work your way up this leftwards to get establish on good holds when the cracks end. From here either dyno to the top or use a poor intermediate crimp and bump up. Top out from there.

Not a classic but can be a good warm-up. Stand-start on a horizontal crack on the left of the boulder, then right and up on good holds.

Same sit-start as for Touching cotton, the lowest holds on the right of big diagonal cracks. From here move up right on holds in cracks and mantle over the top.

A couple of variations on the left-hand side of the boulder, starting stood up at the horizontal rail and mantling. Very short but strenuous.

Sit-start on the only real obvious holds through the middle of the boulder. Hard move to get established in the pocket, then hard moves to the top.

Better than it looks. Stand-start in the middle of the overhang matched on okay holds and feet high. Get up to the big block and mantle above this to finish up the slab above.

Stack pads to start on the only jug you could possibly reach then climb left out of the roof on an incredible crack line. Really Fun and unique climb.

Easiest and most obvious line up the boulder. Stand-start, follow the crack in the middle of the boulder.

Stand-start on big obvious holds to the left of the crack line and work your way delicately up avoiding the crack on your right.

Short but fun problem. Start on lowest usable hold on the arete, one hardish move up to the big flakes, then work your way left along the arete and up to finish.

Start matched on the decent rail on the far right of the boulder. Couple powerful first moves up to the lip, then use holds a bit further right for a tricky mantle. Short but esthetic line.

On the left side of the boulder. Start on a good rail, then a big move to a decent hold just under the lip. From there find holds further in and mantle.

The firs ascent was done onsight, no crash pads, no shoes, no chalk, no warmup. A true spur of the moment ascent. Climb straight up from a sharp rail by way of one big move and a series of smaller holds lead to the topout.

Stand-start, up the left-hand side of the boulder on good holds.

Sit-start on the big blocky holds low down, mantle this staying on the arete rather than the slab to the right, delicately reach holds on top of the boulder and muscle up to top out.

Stand-start. Up the middle of the slabby section of the boulder, good practice for finding feet and smearing on slabs.

Stand-start. Start at the same spot as for Slab Slob, but go right up a less obvious section of the slab, via a high right foot and bellyflop.

Crouch start in the overhang matched in a good slot in the crack, climb out right and up the right side of the face. Once you pass the two big holes in the face (great jugs) you are commited. This is a pretty scary but all around amazing climb. Avoid using the right arete until at the top, although this can be a nice bailout lower down. Getting off the boulder can be tricky!

The main line up the center of the head-wall. Start matched on left facing side-pull and make powerful moves up to get established on the wall. An efficient start is key to avoiding exhaustion in the no fall zone. Stay calm, don't panic, have fun!

This problem ascends the arete on left hand side of the boulder. Start stood on the ramp below the arete with hands matched on the slanting rail. Once established, the ascent along the arete is straight forward with good feet and decent hand holds.

Crouch start matched in low crack on the side of the boulder you arrive at from the picnic tree path, follow crack out of roof and then climb arete left to finish left over the exposed overhang.

Same start as Joker but goes right out of roof and up the short face to the top.

To the right of Jack. Sit-down start matched on the thin edge, powerful moves up and to the right out of the roof then left up the short pace. Amazing, precise moves!

A sharp and aesthetic traverse of the boulder. Start matched in "The Joker" crack and proceed to make a full traverse of the boulder utilising the features on the main face to the end of the climbable holds marked by a short horizontal crack with a small pocket at it's end. Once the furthest hold right "the pocket" has been achieved, the climber may top out. Note: the top edge of the boulder is off limits. The climber must dance around on the holds and features on the main face and belly of the boulder.

To the right of Heavy is the Head. Sit-down start with hands on low on quasi symmetrical crimpy edges, a few big moves straight up to the top.

Start left hand in pocket and right hand on good side pull, moves right and up on slopers, crimps, and small feet. One of my all-time favorites at Lukenya! On the backside of the boulder - needs at least two pads and a decent spotter to avoid the nearby boulder in a fall.

Start on the same holds as For Every King a Crown, but then go left and up with big side-pulls and cool body positions.

Start on pocket/crack at the end of 'Final Boss' and proceed to do the problem in reverse up to where you join 'Jack.' From here, the problem proceeds up and left, sharing a stylish top out with 'The Joker.'

An alternative finish to Heavy is the head. Start on the same holds as for Heavy is the head, but when you arrive at the decent crimp about midway in match and head out left rather than right.

Up the slab on the left side of the boulder, starting as low and as far left as possible then making your way up and to left, topping out near the tree branches. Slabby and technical climbing.

Start on the lowest jugs in the middle of the boulder and top out on the chicken head at the top.

An enticing little slab problem directly above the tiny slot between the neighboring boulder
