Probably the best line here: short, slick, and powerful. Start sitting with right hand on a cool undercling and left just above on the sloping lip. Make a tough move right to a crimpy sidepull, then make a crux move back left to a left hand sidepull. Finish by figuring out the easier but tricky bulge to a hidden jug and the top. The short and low crux on this makes it (I think) either a good first 6 or a tough 5.A potential variation could start matched on the double undercling. This feels pretty beefy but is probably doable.

Start at the bottom of the big hollow flake (as for Sundry), climb right on the undercling pinch feature, then straight up the clean face. If the entire feature wasn't hollow, the interesting movement on this might net it three stars. The flake seems pretty solid, but who knows..?

Start standing at the bottom of the big, hollow flake, and climb its left side. The flake is unnerving, but hasn't come down yet so..? A fine warmup. 

Start right hand on flake crimp and left hand on sidepull under bulge. Make weird moves up, potentially utilizing a handjam in the flake to the right. Shares finish with Sundry. More awkward than hard, and some questionable rock. 

Short but fun finger and hand crack. Start sitting with two hand jams, then make moves up over the bulge to a narrowing finger crack and some crimps. It looks like a pile but it climbs well.A fun eliminate that uses only the crack for hands goes at about v2 is also recommended. 

Perhaps best known for its disc golf (which is truly superb), Lizard Peak also has some easy-access, scattered granite boulders. Most are too small or jumbled to warrant much attention, but one cluster (conveniently right next to the main parking) has a couple of decent problems. These, combined with a round on the pitch-n-putt, can make for a very pleasant winter afternoon.Separately, there is quite a bit of broken glass and trash scattered around the boulders: it would be cool if climbers cleaned it up a bit each time they went. Barring this and the graffitied rock, the ambience is almost pleasant. If anyone has climbed on these before, let me know the name/grade/history and I would be happy to change what is listed here.
