This starts mid face where you find "Down The Barrel" and finishes as per. Mid face, find the two positive rails below the long diagonal crack. Start on the second, lowest rail, move into the higher rail and then the long crack/seam, and hit the top lip to trend left to top out as per "Running With Scissors" and "Down the Barrel"

Down the Barrel

Running With Scissors

Shorter, but nice and challenging moves with a great top out. 

  Directly under the roof find the flat, slightly sloped slash rail to match on for the stand start. 

  Move up and left to the slots by the corner of the roof at the close tree. From the slots, break right immediately to press into the distant gaston over the lip. Fall into the closer side-pull and then blast to the jug over the lip.  

  Make it to the top of the boulder for an easy mantle.

To the left of the Scissor Roof, look for the cool slot on the vertical face. Below the slot is a good but thin rail. Start matched here. 

  Move into the slot and then good holds above. Top out with ease.

A tough line on a very aesthetic boulder.  

  On the downhill, river facing face of this block follow the thin, ling seam to the low juggy start. 

  Pull on the boulder matched in the low jug of the seam that runs the entire length of the face.  

  Follow the seam, using only the crack, until the crack ends below the break in the top lip of the boulder. 

  At the break, leave the seam and hit the lip to continue trending left to top out as per "Running With Scissors"

When looking down from the trail, the Scissor Boulder is just left of the Big Boulder. It has a slightly overhung face toward the river and a short roof toward the Big Boulder
