An awesome arete climb that features a slot in it. Some funky moves and a slabby finish make this a great problem! Stand start at the slot and climb it and the arete while lay-backing it.

Split Arete

Unnamed

Height dependent start, or just stack a pad. Reach up to a good crimp in a shallow dish. Pull on and make some difficult moves to the lip of the boulder and then climb up the slab using good balance and a good xenolith knob. Finish up into the shallow scoop.

An area classic and balance/ footwork test piece!

On the downhill side of the boulder, stand start and climb up the scoop using slopers and small xenolith features until you can reach the large hueco up and right near the summit to top out.
