On the downstream-most end of the boulder you will find the roof. This one climbs the left-most side of the roof from the low sit start.

 Sit start at the corner of the roof, right hand underclinging the deep flake, left on the nice side-pull.

 Toss to the thin crimp, then right to the absolute perfect rounded bulb. Top out.

Walk past the front roof on the uphill side. Along this uphill side, mid-face (not near the arete, but mid-face) follow nice features and sidepull chunks to delicate moves up top. Top out and scoot down to downclimb at the lower point along the same face.

So much fun!

 Under the Pirate Ship Roof (downstream-most end of the boulder) look to the far right side under the roof for the two opposing roof crimps. Stand start compressing the two edges, and use the far corner of the roof for toe-hooks. Work out of the roof to the sloper loaf at the lip. Swing feet to the far left and work up the side-pull rail to the obvious high hueco. Roots above are on to top out.

An inspiring and beautiful feature. Marshall with the vision and brobdingnagian cajones.

 This one would get the rating of V2R (SH) in a lot of guidebooks. SH for "Super Highball" since it definitely tops out at close to 30ft, the "R" due to the rocky and congested landing.

 Top rope and rehearse this before attempting.

 On the upstream-most end of the boulder you will find the off-width split. Stand start on the face to the right of the split and make a few moves upward. Midway through, transfer into the crack and then lay-back the blade. Continue working the lay-back, then the off-width, then again reach to the right face at the top to gain the top lip to top out.

Once you cross over the river this is the first big boulder you come to. A great, low roof on its front (downstream roof) and its side and back have lofty, tall lines from vert to slab/crack terrain.
