Suzie B follows the same formula as her big sister Suzie A (V1)--great moves up a thin face, with a low crux, high top out and ankle destroying rubble at the base.  Don't miss this climb, but also don't fall unexpectedly.  Climb the right side of the face of the Suzie A boulder, from a great starting hold to the top out 15 feet above you.

Suzie A

From two pockets 7 feet up under the roof on the south side of the Suzie A boulder, crank up to the jug.  Using the arete the difficulty drops to V1.  For a V6 variation, start from a side pull 3 feet up above a small lip, continue to the original start and finish.

To the right of the Suzie boulder, a wide boulder with horizontal cracks faces the carriage road. Traverse right-to-left along the boulder.

There is a boulder behind the kiosk which faces the carriage road, with a nice flat area in front of it for placing pads.

 Traverse the boulder from right to left, stepping up (crux) and topping out on the left end.

This is a fun, somewhat awkward lip traverse that involves a lot of heel hooking and slapping. It starts on the far left side of the boulder and traverses all the way right to top out on the obvious jugs at the lip of the boulder. Make sure to find the best spots on the slopers!

Start with your hands on the thin horizontal holds a few feet up on the left face of the Suzie A boulder.  Work directly up the face using edges, horizontals and thin feet to the top out above.  This is a great face climbing problem.  Don't miss it if you like to climb the thin stuff. 

  For a harder variation (V2) move left from the holds above the start to climb between the arete and original route to the top.

There's nothing (or nearly nothing) to be found here that's over V4, but there are quite a few nice moderate problems to work.  Sure the landings could be a lot better on most of them, but it just serves to hold your attention.  Right?  For the most part you don't want to climb many of the problems here unless you are solid at the grade, have a brilliant spotter or carry a high jump pit on your bouldering forays.
