Facing the Gallery boulder on the far-right up hill side where the boulder joins the ground, you will find a nice warm up slab.  Start on the crimp rail and work up the slabby arete.  Scope out all the previous hand holds for the feet and look for the nice iron rail on for the top out. 1.5/2 stars.

Just to the left of Juxtaposition look for the decent start hold a little higher up.  If not able to reach one may use the crimps just below to begin working feet up.  Feet are tricky but once established begin to move through the slopey holds and then setting up for a throw to the jug crack.  Delicately begin to top out just to the left of Juxtaposition, the rail isn’t as good here; although, there is a little feature.

 Start matched in a slot down low and throw left up to a very prominent iron nodule.  Up and right is the pinch and undercling jug.  Find a way to get the left hand on the lip crimp, work feet up and mantle the slopey top.  Enjoy sinking into those lips!!!

This problem begins right of the arête on the tall, vertical face of the boulder.  Locate the low pocket.  Sit start with your left hand in the pocket and your right hand on your choice of crimp.  Finesse your way up through the perfect, thin edges to the crux moves in the middle of the face  Once you hit the ledge near the top, locate a hidden right jug just above the ledge and move up using the iron rail on top of the boulder for a tall but confident top out.

Starts just to the right of ‘Coat Check’ on a dark iron feature.  Make some moves up the face finding some small holds until you reach the rounded jug pocket up and right.  Once locked in with the right hand start working feet up until you find a small edge to grab at the top that will help out with the mantle.

Start on the same start holds as Coat Check moving left around the arête instead of straight up.  Lock in the right heel to make the move out to the left side pull feature around the arête.  Set up for the big cross over move to a big rail with the right hand and begin moving up and left for the top out .

Start on the far left side of the slabby down hill facing side of the boulder.  Sit start with both hands in the distinct, diagonal slot jug.  Work your way up through fun incut edges and a cool right heel hook to the blank-looking top.  A high right toe and hidden jug up top will set you free.

Just to the left of Picture of Dorian Grey, sit start in a jug slot and establish feet to cross over with the right in to a nice jug.  Work through some funkiness.  The shorties will have to trust some smears but the taller folks will be able to reach to the crimps.  Move up and left through crimps and iron rails top out.

Stand start just to the right of portrait of a Woman with hands matched on descent slot holds, make a move out left to a good edge and begin working up feet to the thin face crimps and edges that will help you see your way to the top.  Look for the iron rail feature and jug slot out left to help for the tall top out.

On the tallest arête feature, sit start down low on a pillar jug formed by two huecos that are side-by-side. Undercling to pull to a left hand slot, and good right hand lip. Lock off up and left to the good pinch (if your shorter, bump off the sidepull crimp to get there) and then flip your right hand into the shallow but good undercling. Make a big move to the diagonal, rounded left facing gaston and then begin moving through the thin barn-doory vertical iron ribbon on the arête. Continue to the iron rail at the top for the last couple of moves.

Tall, featured and fantastic. The Gallery Boulder has smooth slab climbing and great arete features with a mostly flat landing.
