FA by Ryan Nelson on his birthday (he was fully clothed). Start sitting under the center of the boulder on two crimps, then traverse right to the edge. Bump up the right edge, avoid dabbing on the tree on the top-out. It’s harder than it looks.

The first problem at Berne Park and an instant classic. Start sitting directly under the prow with hands matched right. Work the crimps and bump up the left edge to a muscly mantle top-out.

The left side of the main prow. Sit start on good holds and work up and left of the tree. Mantle over the prow. Walk off down the steps carved in a nearby dead tree leaning against the cliff.

Start with hands at head height on two small, triangular holds. Pull up on holds and kick a foot left for a rock over to a high crimp (crux). Bump and gaston your way to the top on small crimps and a large pocket near the top.

A great overhanging problem. Begin sitting on the nicely placed rock directly under the prow, with a left edge and small right side pull around the corner. Bump right up to a pocket, throw for the jug and hook a heel. Top-out strategies vary!

Climb the main prow of Astro Boulder. Solid crimps lead to a thin highball crux and an easy top-out.

Begin leaning on the large boulder and work the hidden holds on the left arête for a fun climb.

Begin seated under the steep, clean prow, fold your legs in and reach right to the edge. Bump to a rail and work back toward the prow, mantle out finish.

Begin sitting on the right side of the face with a left hand side pull and right hand crimp. Pull small edges to the big flake and exit left onto the ledge.

Start with the same moves as “Bane”, but follow the prow right onto two tiny crimpers and a high step. Dyno to the bucket-shaped jug at the lip. Five moves.

Just like left, but move on bigger holds to the right of the fir tree. Same top out. Walk off down the steps carved in a nearby dead tree leaning against the cliff.

Begin standing. Gain the small boulder step using a side pull and undercling. Step left and follow small, sharp crimps to a solid dead-point finish on the lip.

Deceptively hard for its length, this problem saw many barn-door exits before its first ascent. Begin on the right side of the face with a smallish left crimp and a right side pull. Bump the right edge and catch the obvious flat sloper for a fun top-out.

Great overall warm up with the approach. Climb the pockets on the east face up to the large hueco in the center of the wall. Top out over the rim.

Climb Send Train but go straight up to the lip, bumping left hand to a small edge to a tricky mantle finish.

The first problem established on PCB and a great warm-up. Begin sitting on the left side of the face and follow the side pulls, jug and pockets to the top.
