This problem is the black and red line on the Shade Surfer boulder.

Start at the same point as Happy Hour but make a big move right and mantle.

Just a couple moves, really, but they pack a punch of quality and difficulty. One of the cooler problems in the whole Rock Shop area. Another steep granite line, this time on thin crimps you have to bear down on pretty hard.

This problem is the yellow line on the Shade Surfer Boulder.

Sit start on a big rail, high heel. Climb Straight up.

Cool route on the butt of the Lord of the Flies boulder. A couple of easy moves gets the hips moving and ready for harder climbing.

The movement is good, but it's quite short, so I didn't give it more stars.

This problem is the black line on the Shade Surfer Boulder.

Start on the low flake to the right of the arete move up and left and top out.

Beautiful rock and amazing moves on this cool line. David Lloyd has a nice video on his site of this as well, so check that out.

It looks like from the video that a hold that they used is now gone (I think?), and we did it using slopier stuff. It felt to us closer to v6/+ than v5, so I took the liberty of upgrading.

A clear line up nice granite, crux move at the top of the bulge, and a satisfying finish make this boulder a classic of the area.

This boulder is also the road marker to find your way up to Gem Thief/Starry Night.

Start low left on the same slot jug as Lord of the Flies. Climb up that problem, but instead of topping out straight up, continue following the fin/rail feature out right.

Great movement on big holds leads to a high crux, such as it is. Very good problem, one of the best of the grade.

This problem is the blue line on the Shade Surfer boulder.

Start on Low flake move left then finish straight up the arete.
