This is the obvious left facing flake in between the dyno problem and the fingercrack. Makes some tricky 5.9ish moves on edges and sidepulls up into the flake and an easier topout.

Sloping Disappointment

[Meant to be a harder start to the Flake]

Start with a hand match on the upwards facing flake and your left foot on a lower chip. Mantle up and bring your right foot over to a small ledge and move into a thumb press onto the main flake (the best spot for your thumb is on the lower end of the flake in a spot roughly the size of a penny). Then work up the flake as normal.

In between the crack and the flake is an obvious peaked mantleshelf. Grab it, mantle, and reach up for inobvious edges above. Harder than it looks.

A silly but fun variation. Lieback the lieback the other way, leaning off right and using the footholds on the original as your handholds and the lieback itself for your feet, as well as a few tiny holds out right. Finish the same as the original.

Pull up the slab on the far right side of the boulder, passing an undercling. One of the easier problems on the boulder.

A traverse of lieback rock. Start at the lieback, and traverse left through slippery slabby moves, staying low. When you reach the flake, the face becomes overhung. Make some powerful gymnastic moves to the mantleshelf, then make a hand traverse across it with no feet. A final hard move gets you into the fingercrack. Finish up it.

For a harder variation, start all the way around right and up from the lieback. Traverse left, staying as low as you can. This adds a hard, slippery, thin, downclimbing slab crux to the problem, and bumps the grade at least one higher, but detracts from the overall quality somewhat.

The namesake of Lieback Rock.

Lieback up a right facing rail where the rock splits from pink to grey.  Get up to a finger pocket undercling.  Follow undercling flake around right and then finish up the seam to the top.

Classic.  Feels more like an actual trad route than a boulder since it is so long and varied.  Some start on the right side of the rail for added difficulty.

A short positive crack found on the left side of the boulder

Work your way up and then dyno to a large jug.  Then up to the top.  Can be done static as well but it takes more skill.

Desperate slab climbing on tiny holds, to the left of the other unknown slab and right of the lieback

In between the flake and the dyno is a line of thin slippery holds. Smedge your way up tiny polished edges with small hands and reach up for polished sloper at the lip. The flake is off. Way harder than the lieback, this is a great one to "polish" your slab skill.
