This climbs the curved, fat, left arete of the obvious, back face. Sit start down low on the arete and work your way up the tallest point of the boulder before topping out. Key holds make this pretty easy but really fun at the grade. A great warm up. The crux may be the start.

Pouty Lip

Clove Cigarettes

Kretek

Split This Square

Nice Pretty Dress

Sour Grapes

This starts underneath and to the right of a nice but not huge jug in the center or center/right of the main face. Start on undercling with poor feet and work up to the decent jug, then go for the topout. It may be easier if you are tall.

Same start as Clove Cigarettes. Dyno to the lip

This ascends up to and through the obvious weakness left of center in the main face.  Start on crimps at mid height and not great feet, then reach up to decent hold behind flake.  From there, go for the topout.

Start laying back on a huge hold near the right arete.  Work your feet up, grab the lip, traverse a bit, and then go for a surprisingly heroic and fun topout.

Sit start, and traverse the cool lip from the back side (the side roughly facing the Beehive Boulder).

This is a striking boulder that looks like a breaking wave.  The main face (see photo) has several easy problems that are fun for the grade.  The overhanging nature of the main face makes for cool topouts especially at the grade.   

  There may be other problems on a smaller overhanging face to the left of the main face.
