The Rotten and The Wicked

Art of the Heel

Sit start (stand is easier, V0) just right of the smooth v-slot/cave and follow an enticing finger crack as it angles right over some tricky moves (crux). Take a breather on the little ledge and keep it together for the high finish on positive finger locks over one of the worst landings in the area. Classic?

Sit start on bad crimps below the starting rails for The Rotten and The Wicked. Climb up on bad crimps and into The Rotten And The Wicked. Erick Kopff took this down finally!

Start on the small boulder to the right of the Wicked boulder (often wet). Traverse onto the Wicked boulder and make a big move up to a good edge. Traverse on edges into The Wicked and The Rotten.

This boulder has broken since it was originally ascended; a sit start is no longer possible (at least not for me).Start with left hand on the flat jug in the left dihedral and your right hand in the lowest crimp in the right dihedral. A mix of creative footwork will get you to a juggy three finger pocket (it may break some day) and a perplexing topout--either gun it to the finger slot out right or slap up the arete to the right, the difficulty it basically the same. 

Stand start high on the large right-hand rail on the left side of the Wicked boulder. Move left into a slightly smaller left-hand edge, and then go up right to a crimp - or go out left and up to a sloper pinch. Either way, you will have to use both holds to throw to the top. Top out just left of the sloper pinch.

Somehow neglected for nearly a decade, this boulder is awesome! start on the right side of the cave feature and slap your way up awesome features in the overhang and on the edge of the lip until it is possible to move left into a cruxey press up to good holds and an easy topout. Not sure about the grade, put it up in the middle of the summer and the crux is definitely friction dependent.

A nice collection of boulders with stellar quality rock just off of the trail to the left. There is a range of difficulty available and potential for a couple of very hard problems.
