Sit start on a one pad diagonal rail just below waist level. Head straight up on decent edges with careful body positioning to reach a small horizontal crack about six feet up. Navigate a couple technical moves, heading right along holds in the crack. Bump up to a small flake, and then fire for the lip and a relatively easy mantel.This is a phenomenal, dynamic line filled with technical beta - short and sweet. It is only nine feet tall but has ~9 hand moves up to the lip.

Start just right of a two hand dish on a decent edge. Move straight up using a sidepull, a sloper, and underclings before a powerful move to catch the edge. For the entirety of the climb, stay right of the separate block, including on the topout.

Start matched on a good, two hand crack (just left of where two cracks meet at chunk of quartz). Move up to a shallow edge, then move over to two parallel cracks. Staying right of the quartz jugs, shoot up to a good lip, and then top out. For full value avoid using arête for Moss Arête. An eliminate but climbs really well

Start low along the southeast arête with your right hand on cut out jug and your left hand in slot just above. Move straight up staying left on the south face, left of Warm Up, using an edge, a crimp, a sloper, and the upper horizontal crack before making a dynamic move to the lip, and top out.

On the far left of the face, start low on an obvious, two part, juggy dish. Move up and left to an overhanging block on a beefy undercling. Shoot left over the lip, and hit a chunky jug. Move straight up to top out on sloped crimps.

Start low on right arête with your hands matched on low block. Move straight up the arête to an easy topout. The crux is establishing the start - it is tougher for tall folks.

Use the same start as for Fountain of Youth. Move up to an overhanging block, but traverse left on a sidepull crimp and underneath small roof to a jutting feature at the far left. Make powerful moves over left side of block, and continue to top out on west side of arête. No cheating, you should be topping out on the slabby west face.

Start on the left arête with your left hand on a good quartz crimp (on overhung side) and your right hand on a big quartz block. Follow the line of quartz up and right to an easy topout.

On far left of face, start low on an obvious, two part, juggy dish. Move up to the right of a large, overhanging block following a thin, vertical crack to a nice topout. This is a really awesome climb with some cool moves, and it offers the opportunity to practice hand jamming.

This is probably the highest quality climbing that I've discovered/developed so far in the state forest. There are climbs ranging from V0 to V7 and beyond and high quality rock. The boulder is about 9 feet tall and houses at least 12 unique routes, some of which still to be climbed.
