Starting on opposing sidepulls climb trending left on the arete of the Happy Boulder. Good fun.

Climb delicately directly up the North face.   Take care completing the finishing moves.

Classic!

On the steep South face of the 'Happy Boulder', sit-start down and right on a juggy shelf. Steep moves lead to a left hand pinch and right hand sidepull/undercling. Make a big move up and left to the big block just below the lip (the "Boss" hold). From here, finish either up and left or up and right, same difficulty.

Also referred to as "Weapons of Calf Destruction."  Key beta involves a calve destroying right leg hook while moving up on not so great holds.  Fun and cool movement, but I remember it being a little painful.

Start as for the Hulk, but from the pinch and hueco, dyno to the lip directly up and mantle over. Suuuuper sick

Start on the right of the face, and follow the obvious left slanting crack.   When this crack ends continue directly to the top.

A left to right traverse on the steep South face of the 'Happy Boulder'.

Start way down and left in the cave below the start of 'Disco Diva'. Make some interesting moves out of the cave and traverse the juggy lip of the cave right with underclings and other good holds, and continue all the way over to finish up the arete of 'Big Chicken'.  Makes those topout moves a little more interesting!

Start on the giant hueco on the left side of the overhang. Pull on and move right. After a few moves climb up the thin crack. Once established on the crack make a hard gaston move to the left crack. Using full body tension, set the feet up and grab the underside of the boss left handed. From here figure out the best way to grab the boss with your other hand and finish as for "The Hulk".

This line is slightly forced, but it has some really unique movement and provides a great challenge for those who have done "The Hulk" and "Disco Diva".

SDS in a big Hueco just left of Vulcan Traverse, climb up around the buldge into a scoop.  This is basically a SDS to the downclimb on this boulder.

This short traverse is deceptively difficult. It is contrived but the movement is quality. Sit start as for Disco Diva but go up right hand to take the small sloping hueco, then traverse left at around seven feet using a decent crimp pocket, a big fat sloper, toe hooks, heel hooks, core tension, and creativity. Top out as for Weapons of Mass Distraction.

On the steep South face of the 'Happy Boulder', sit-start on a juggy shelf (same starting holds as 'The Hulk').  Make a tricky sequence up and right onto the arete.  Continue up the steep arete heading left on better holds to a few fun last moves.

Stand-start is v2

On the left side of the steep south face of the Happy Boulder.

Sit-start under the lip of the small cave, just under the big hueco, with hands using either the left side of the hueco or either of the two thread pockets inside the hueco. Climb straight up using any of a number of tricky sequences to the perfect four finger jug hole just below the lip, top out straight up. Classic!
