the arete is a low start, but not a sit.    start on good flake at the bottom, and look for the decent holds along its sides. at the top there are several quality holds that make topping out a breeze. the bottom, first few moves make the crux.

Lingual Arete (Right Sit-start)

Biopsy

Start low matched on the lowest point of the ramping, right ascending rail. Start at the lowest point and stay true to the rail, traversing and trending right along the face. The holds become sharp and distant. Use heel hooks and link to the boulders right, high corner at the arête. Top out. 

-Short and sweet-  

  sit start on the slab that is under the main boulder, hands behind the slab in a huge deep crack. Feet are "on" for the bottom slab.  

  Toss up to the decent left hand crimp and then latch the smooth protruding knob. Get to the sloper above. there is a knob in the sloper, so aim for it. Match the sloper or find the better hold that is nearby and then the knob on the top of the boulder. 

  Once on the knob, search for a massive jug and top out with ease.

toward the end of this problem it becomes a bit sharp, so be ready to tread lightly.  

  sit start under the incline on a set of flakes, and either undercling up, or toss up off the flakes to the first sloper. There is a long, diagonally ascending line that includes slopers, knobs, and sharp pockets. it is clean and some holds at the end are sharp, but you can avoid them by using intermediates. once at the last sequence, grab the top for an easy top out. 

Almost not worth mentioning, but its there none the less.    Do a low squat start on incut grooves. work up through slim lumps and incuts to a so-so top out. This is short and unappealing, but if you are waiting on someone else to do the classic bi-lingual that is over to the right from here, you might as well tick this off the list.  

Sit start as per Biopsy and traverse diagonally up and right to link into the upper portion of Bi-Lingual to finish it out.

When at the Lingual Arête, search low on the right side of the boulder for a smooth-grained right sidepull low to the ground. This is the starting right hand. 

  Start sitting on the low block with feet however they work for you. Right hand on the small sidepull and a left hand helping out on whatever small potion you can find. Move up along the arête to gain the big jug point. Continue to the top. 

  To the left of Bi-lingual. sit-start on a broken flake and work up the short face through improbable, painful, small crimps to a slopey patch and smooth knobs to top out. only use feet on the main boulder. the separated ledge at the bottom is off 

The first recommended problem on the LRT Trail! This thing is just a few feet from the Overlook. The best lines here are Bi-lingual and the Lingual Arete. The Bilingual Boulder is a perfect place to warm-up or to get a quick session in.
