Starts near sitting with the right hand on large rail (same hold as left hand for start of fat grips) and left hand on slopey side pull on the arete, with a big toe hook. Bump left hand up the blunt arete, switching a heel hook for the toe. Hit a small crystal on the lip, bump to a blind crimp over the edge and pull the mantle.

Bored Stiff

Big Paw

Fat Grips

Morbidly Obese Grips

Maybe the best line on the Fat Grips boulder. It starts on the left side of Bored Stiff, and finishes on the throw on Fat Grips. It requires really cool, technical movement across the steep wall to link from low left into Fat Grips, and then you get the full value of the Fat Grips finish.

Bored Stiff might be a thrutchy topout on holds that never quite feel good, but if you add a sit start from the Fat Grips holds, and cut left into bored stiff, and finish on that problem, it is actually pretty cool. I also like the name - makes one think of a famous hard problem in Switzerland.

Start low with right hand on slopey side pull and left hand on crimp rail. Head up to big hold, hit the side pull crimp on the roof, and huck for the lip. Super fun.
