Hike into the main area of the Lower Satellites by following the signs to the Third Flatiron. When you get to the Girlfriend Boulder on your left, go around to the east side.

On the southeast corner is a short overhang. Begin from a sds using any of a variety of holds. Stretch up to an edge above the bulge, get your feet up and pull over. Oh well ... another Satellite lowball that would really only be any good as part of a circuit of easier problems.

Hike into main area of the Lower Satellites by following the signs to the Third Flatiron. When you get to the Girlfriend Boulder on your left, go east and a short east-facing overhang is down below the northeast corner of the Girlfriend Boulder.

Squat to Pee is all of 6 of 7 feet high, starts from an awkward sds down under the overhang, thrutches up for better holds and pulls up and over near a small pine. I was told shortly after doing this unmemorable pile of crap that people piss down there all the time. Great. Well now that you know ... go do something else.

A short block faces uphill and is on the left side of the trail about 15 yards up from the Stardust Boulder, this is the G-Friend Boulder.  Traverse left to right across the southwest face, no using the lip.

Just left of the problem called Unknown on the G-Friend Boulder (see [Girfriend Traverse] for location) is a great SDS problem.  Start on the obvious and cool sloping rail and chuck to another obvious hueco then use [anything] else to get to the jug and the mantle.  The problem is right behind the tree beside the G-Friend Boulder and is easily [visible] from the trail.

On the back side of the G-Friend Boulder (see

The Girlfriend Traverse

for location) is a fantastic problem with a sds.  Pull hard and throw to a good sloper then use a good edge and undercling to top out.  In the book Colorado Bouldering it says that a stand up start is V1, but a sds hasn't been done.  Well, that's false and I recommend trying it with the sds even though it's f...ing hard.

On the G-Friend Boulder (see

The Girlfriend Traverse

for location) is an obvious corner facing the trail.  Just to the left is a tree and a large crack in the rock that you start on.  Start low and slap up the sides before pulling over.
