The sit start to Ball Doctor. Why not add more moves to a problem that most people can't figure out? Just sit down, smear both feet near the tiny dihedral, wiggle your fingertips into a sidepull crack, grab anything with your left hand and pull off the ground. Depending on the phase of the moon, you should be able to grab the good hold out left, adjust a foot, and then bump your right hand up to the good hold for the stand start. Smear a left foot, sit on it, deadpoint into the backwards pinch, and you're ready to do the rest of the problem.

Ball Doctor

Start sitting and on quartz holds on the arete, with a good foot. Continue up the arete on strenous moves. Pinch your way to success up the arete on this classic line up the Hero Block.  Most people rock onto the face on the left and skip the crux rather than stay true to the arete.

A short face climb on crystals.  Shorter people may have to stack pads to even reach the start holds.  Stand start in the middle of the face between the arete and the corner.  Reach for some crystally crimps and pull onto the wall with bad feet.  Move straight up to better holds and the top.

A technical climb that takes a little bit of power.  Not exactly a problem for shorter types as you probably need to stack the pads to reach the start holds if you're under 6'.  Reach high for a crappy right hand to start, then follow the seam out left with crimps and bad feet.  Gun for better holds at the top and finish it up.

Start on the rounded flake right of the tree on the Hero Block. Climb the rounded jugs to the top out.    Also the downclimb for the Boulder. 

  Good warm-up.

Start at the bottom of the rock slab and gain a pinch above.  Crystals and a foot out left will hopefully be good enough for you to gain a decent right hand above.  Finish up the arete on big holds to finish up.

Sit start (or squat start if you're shorter than 6') to the right of the arete with two bad sidepulls.  Pull up with terrible feet and slap the arete.  Work up arete to the same topout as Fallen Hero.

Sit start as if you're doing broken hero. Rock left onto 2 by 4.

Sit start on the flake and climb up and slightly left. Also a good place to downclimb

Stand start in a small scoop with an upside down left hand and a high right foot.  Slap out right to the rounded arete and work your way up to the ball (a high sloper) then up small crystals to the top.  The crux is beta, and I don't have much to offer, but it's fun none the less.

Home of the friction dependent classics Ball Doctor and Fallen Hero.  A number of easier lines ascend all sides of this boulder.
