Start with both hands and a heel hook on the shelf. Work left along the shelf until you encounter a tree trunk, then top out.

Two Knees, One Spock

Sit start with both hands on a solid right-facing edge. One tall move up to a good knob, then the rest is your typical Hammond Pond topout.

Start with both hands and a heel hook on the shelf. Move up and right to a sidepull, then a good knob. The crux is very weird: get both knees on top of the shelf, then plug in a left hand spock in the crack system. It is an easy topout from there. I haven't found any easier way of doing it... but maybe it's just fun to try such a bizarre move.

Start with both hands and a heel on on the shelf. Bump the right hand through a series of weird edges until you reach an incut edge with a nearby knob for the left hand. Work straight up from there. Look for a bomber foot jib out right to assist with the somewhat sketchy topout. 

  There is a break in the shelf where it changes angle and becomes covered in moss. The section of the boulder to the left of this break is off. It seems contrived when looking at it but feels more natural when you're on the rock.

The rock type is conglomerate puddingstone, similar in texture to the rest of Hammond Pond. Expect the occasional dogwalker or tottering octogenarian, but other climbers are a rare sight.
