A fun, core intensive, problem at the far back of the cave. 

  Start below the end of the traverse of GAD/WYWG in a shallow hole below a wide crack.  Fight the barn door and layback up the slightly overhanging crack to a fun fist jam move to gain the jugs.  Either drop off or top out.

Being Green

Start matched on a jug near the entrance to the cave. Move left on a series of crimps, staying low until you reach a two-finger crimp. Make a hard deadpoint with the right hand and finish on a jug. This is a variation of While You Were Greening, which takes the higher line of holds.

Start as for Sit to Greening all day. Do the same first move and use the same drop knee, from the drop knee get a gaston and move up off that to another gaston (or go straight to the 2nd one) and do a huge foot kick to the start for Greening All Day. Grab a pinch and bump to a high quartz pinch. Finishes on the jugs in the seam above as it cannot top out.

Sit start with a right hand crimp on the right of the arete and a left hand sloping pinch on the arete. Make a hard move left to the arete and then make your way up the face and right. 

This used to be posted as "Out of the hole project" was recently sent by Aaron Neitzel and given this name. 

  Starts in a hole in the cave with 3 ways to get to it (see below). Use the underclings and high feet/toe hooks to start in the cave. Move out to the nice edge low on the face out of the cave, find feet to get a far right sidepull on the face.

Start on an undercling on the roof. Do a powerful gaston move behind you into a huge undercling. Finish the stand start from here by going left to the arete.

Sit start at the base of the left arete. Climb the triangle shaped face using the left arete and right facing rail systems. Top out at the height of the boulder. You will be near the base of Rhode Island Ripper when you top out.

Start on the big undercling. Go left to the arete and top out.

Start on an obvious rail near the entrance of the cave and traverse left through a series of overhanging crimps and side pulls. Climb up and traverse far left until you can safely exit the rail inside the cave.

Start on some crimps left of squeeze lab in the roof (see pic) and move right through some holds that are facing you to get to the squeeze lab top out.

Although at first glance it looked like the holds were invisible and this line would be impossible the sequence ended up being really cool. Sit start just left of the arête on a diagonal rail. Make a couple hard moves up and left to some mediocre crimps and prepare for the crux iron cross that gets you into the V8 stand start. Sticking this move takes a massive amount of crimp strength and body tension. Continue traversing left and drop off around the corner of the cave as for Greening all Day.

Start on a low right crimp and a higher left incut gaston. Stand up into an undercling, jack your foot up, match, and hit the lip and top out. Watch out for falling into the death pit on the right. A spotter can stop you. Also watch out for the pointy rock. Might have been done before long ago

Sit start with your feet in the hole under the boulder(good sloping ramp for left foot) Make a big move out of the hole and then start heading left to a sloper and rail system. Match the left rail and Make a big move out right before toping out the boulder at its highest point. 

(This climb could be considered an eliminate as it climbs the holds on the left side of the face and was done originally without the left arete. It is easier if you use the arete)

Stand tall and reach up to a suspended block. Right hand is a positive mini-pinch, left hand is a diagonal sloping incut to the left. Pull on ans campus up to a jug, get inverted and throw up a heelhook and move right on a series of sloping rails and pinches.After a few moves figure out how to reach up to some sloping dishes at the top. Stand on a large foot and grab a perfect handlebar root.

Before you freak out that this is already on MP hear me out. They're different problems."Lest one get the impression that Smuggler's Notch has no steep powerful problems, there is one drastic exception to this rule 50 yards uphill and left behind the stone bus shelter. Green Mountain Gringo (B1) hand traverses slopes and pockets for a body length and a half beneath the biggest roof around, then blasts another body length straight out the roof via a football-size quartz chunk to a nervous, landing-from-hell, one-chance-only slap to big holds a foot over the lip. GMG is as gripping as a doctor with a bone-saw and definitely out of character for the area." - John Sherman, Stone Crusade (1994)Andy Salo and I chatted with Bill Patton in the parking lot where he recounted the story of Verm cratering into the talus nearly splitting his head before lighting up a smoke and firing this climb next go like the legend he is. Intrigued by the story, confusion over the name Green Egg vs Green Mountain Gringo and the various exits, we went to check it out and try and formalize names, grades, etc.Turns out the OG Green Mountain Gringo is wicked good and deserving of more ascents. It's better, harder, and  scarier than Green Egg (which continues to traverse and exits more left where the roof is smallest). The lines share a start and some traversing but do not feel contrived and I think it's fitting that this climb has its' own entry. Verm kinda shits on the Notch in Stone Crusade but talks this climb up quite a bit.

Sit start on the large rail on the right end of the vertical block at the back left of the green cave. Make big moves to positive edges straight up the right end of the boulder.

An area holding a good number of great climbs, including John Sherman's Green Mountain Gringo, put up during his quest to boulder in all fifty states. 

  The name is mine, but seems fitting considering the naming scheme for the problems located here.  I'll change it if it's been getting called something else.
