This is a sit start to the problem I. Border Patrol. Sit with a left sidepull that's at a awkward angle and a lower right, pinchy sidepull and really crank. May be easier for little guys, hence the name.

H. Perfect Fit

G. Chubby Checkers

B. You Want Fries With That?

F. Checkmate

E. Riddles of the Sphinx

C. Gravity Vault

D. Solitary Man

A. Pretzel

I. Border Patrol

Stand start the far right arete. This is a great warm-up.

Sit start as for the problem Perfect Fit, but after a move or two move left across the wall on crimpy huecos and then straight up.

Sit start as for the A. Pretzel, but after matching in the crimpy hueco, move right to the crescent crimp and gaston your left on a crimp. Pop to the top.

Start sitting about 5 feet left of Border Patrol with a small, low, left horizontal crimp and a higher right crimpy sidepull. Move up and right deadpointing to two very crimpy sidepulls about six inches apart from each other and crank to the small huecos and then move right to finish as for I. Border Patrol.

Sit start with the same holds as F. Checkmate and a big left foot hold. Crank left to a distant, shallow, round hueco and match. Move right from the hueco to a credit card-sized crimp. Make a hard left hand deadpoint to a tiny, half pistachio shell-sized divot which can only actually be seen looking down from the top of the boulder. Lockoff, get your right foot up high on smears on the ramp, dyno for the shelf, and top out.

Sit start as for the A. Pretzel problem. Move up and right a couple feet and begin traversing right and low across the boulder eventually getting to the far right arete. Finish up the problem Border Patrol. This is very techical and thin.

Sit start as for E. Riddles of the Sphinx and go to the distant left hueco and match. Then move left getting a high, crescent crimp. Move up with some body tension eventually getting your right foot into the hueco. Crank to the shelf and top out.

Sit start all the way to the left on the Patina Boulder with some low holds. Use will power and body tension to reach the obvious crimpy holds slightly to the right. Match and move left to finish.

This boulder is built into the hillside and is the place to go if you like crimpy face problems. The rock quality is killer and there are several unique hueco holds of varying sizes. Problems are arranged left to right.
