Sit start in the middle of the block. Find a hollow sounding flake that has a tiny incut crimp rail on top of it. Above that and to the right will be an uneven crimp rail for your right hand. 

  Place feet on whatever and either bump up to an intermediate crimp, or just move big up and left to a tiny gaston crimp.  

  Continue through better territory to the top out that is the same as Arthur's.

Low Blow

Ardbeg Arthurgator

Arthur Hsu FAd this fun rig on Thanksgiving. 

  On the left portion of the block, find the blunt arete. Start low (not a sit) on opposite sidepulls on either side of the arete. Work up and right across the arete/face to top out at the mid portion of the block via the giant jug knob thing. Fun and tricky!

Access to Low Blow has been re-opened! Thanks to the hard work and dedication from the Access Fund and the Central Appalachia Climbers Coalition the AVP Boulders have been purchased in order to permanently preserve and protect climber and recreational access for current and future generations. Check out the CACC's website here for continued stewardship initiatives and a link for membership and donations!

 The AVP Boulder and surrounding boulders are some of GHSP's most historical and highly regarded climbing resources. With every grade from v1-v10 these boulders have something for everyone. Only a stone's throw from the parking area, the approach is quick and easy. Landings are great and the forest setting is gorgeous. Come check it out!
