Extremely powerful problem up awkward underclings. Sit-start at the far left side of the wall with your left hand on an edge and right hand below your left on a jug. Move into the underclings and traverse for roughly seven powerful moves to a two move crux, throwing up to two slopers. A couple more tricky moves then 5.7 to the top.   Much more difficult than it first appears.

Bicep Traverse

Logistics

T.M.T.

Development Arrested

One of the most diverse boulder problems in the Black Hills. Starts with your right hand on the obvious low edge in the middle of the face and left on a very small pinch. Get a bad heel hook and head up into the finish of the Bicep Traverse. If your heel doesn't stick on the first move, try on another shoe. This turned out to be the key for the first and second ascents. The best problem on the wall and one of the best problems in the Old Baldy vicinity!!!

Sit-start at the far right side of the wall with each hand on perfect crimps on the amazing wall. Do a big throw up to a good hold above your right hand. Make sure not to dab on the boulder right next to you(one of the hardest things to do on this problem). Not at all over once you do this move. Do a challenging, (cool sequence) reachy traverse left and up on bad slopers and edges eventually linking into the 5.7 finish of Bicep Traverse. If it feels impossible it's probably summer.

In the middle of the wall (above the right hand start hold of Logistics) at 7 feet are a couple of side-pulls. Start here. Head straight up then left to finish up the 5.7 finish of Bicep Traverse.

Great boulder with some very good, very powerful problems. A little hard to find but definitely worth the search.
