Sit start farthest left on a shelf with a nice left hand divot and right hand beside on an edge. Traverse crimps about 5 feet right and then continue straight up through obvious holds to the top out. The grade for this boulder is still up for debate, could go easier or harder, but needs a repeat.

Karate Kid

Wax Off

Karate Kid Direct

Bonsai

Wax On

Start the same as for "Karate Kid" but go straight up instead of traversing out right.  If you like tiny crimps you'll like this problem.

Variation start to Wax On. Crouch start on the undercling jug flake and work out onto iron edges. Continue left and up through a nice pocket and top out the same as Wax On.

Karate Kid without the traverse moves. Start on the lowest thin crimp rail under the lip and move up through crimps and sidepull/pinch. This route usually stays dry even when the start holds to karate kid are wet.

Sit start on the right side of the short overhanging boulder on your choice of small crimps. Move out and to the left along iron crimps and edges until you reach a great two finger pocket close to the top of the boulder. Continue left to the cleaned off jug on the lip of the boulder. Entertain a "dirty" topout. This is a good warm up for the harder lines on the boulder.
