Sit start at the jug to the right of the Beached Whale start. Work left up to the apex of the boulder on slopey jugs.

Beached Whale Arete

This problem is very short. The crux for me was the first move to the V-shaped crimp. Getting your feet situated underneath you feels a bit awkward, but once you hit that first crimp and readjust, the rest of the problem flows nicely. Fun, aesthetic line, it is just unfortunate it is so tiny. It is worth a try if you are in the area and enjoy overhangs with small, positive crimps.

This ascends the left arete of the Beached Whale Boulder. Sit start. It feels awkward until the beta is established but is a worthy climb if Beached Whale is feeling out of your range.  

  There is an epic downclimb off the back involving multiple two-rope rappels.

This is the lone boulder to the left of the Alcove.  You can't miss it if you are at the main wall and look left.
