Slight overhand. Start with left hand on clear edge around the corner and right hand on sloper to the right. Throw right hand up to a pretty solid hold and a left throw directly above you to a solid jug.

The Mug

On the east side of the boulder is this short- but-sweet (and steep) problem. Really a one or two move wonder, it's primarily worth adding to your Rubidoux circuit because it's not a slab problem. Give your feet and ankles a break from those dime edges and smears and pretend, for a moment at least, that you are at Hueco.

This is an attractive line just left of center on the boulder's northwest face. Steepish moves on good holds at the start lead to a very large hold, which is used to gain entry into a somewhat-committing corner. A little balancey at top. Most choose to toprope.

Start up on good edges until possible to traverse left 4'.   From here make a delicate sequence up to the overhang which is passed on the left.

Pull up and mantle onto the ledge then follow the slab up to the top of the boulder.

In-cut holds on a slightly overhanging face lead to a tricky and committing move onto a slab. Some holds are a little loose, but the climbing is good.

Climb the flake until a reach gains the top ridge.

The crux comes quickly as you lay back the arete, but all too soon you can swing up onto the slabby arete, which is followed to the top.
