A fingery start leads into a slopey finish, but I wish this problem was longer.  Sit start beneath the small bulge with rounded crimps for each hand.  Pull up and left to the arete and struggle to topout.

Another juggy warmup on Fraggle Rock, this time tackling the central crack and bulge to its right.  Sit start at the base of the crack with large jugs on either side.  Pull off the ground and climb nice holds up the bulge to an easy topout.

Although short, this problem has some fun movement.  Sit start on the right end of the boulder with both hands matched on the right rounded crimp.  Pull up and right to the lip, then slap for a hidden seam that will come in handy for the topout.

Although this is only a three move problem, the fine grain slopey holds make it worthwhile.  Sit start with two good holds and pull up right to a slopey bowl.  Slap up left onto a massive sloper and hope you stick.  Bring your right hand up onto more slopers and top it out.

A fun, sloping traverse that leads to a sloping topout.  Sit start down and left on a good jug with a good foothold.  Pull up and onto the lip and follow it rightwards for 5 moves until you reach the apex.  Mantle over to finish.

A juggy warmup that climbs better than it looks.  Sit start between the two rocks with your feet beneath the small roof.  There are jugs for hands or a heel hook if you prefer.  Pull up and climb the face and arete on large holds to an easy topout.

Great movement on a beautiful, isolated arete.  Once you see it, you'll probably want to climb it.  Sit start down and right next to the tree with your right hand on the arete and your left hand on the big sidepull on the bottom arete.  Heelhook and follow the arete up and left on slopers and crimps before figuring out the crux moves to transition into the topout.

If this was anywhere else, it would be perpetually caked with chalk.  Fun movement, fine grained slopers, and a flat landing combine to make for a really great problem.  Sit start beneath the bulge on a large, blocky two-handed jug and make a big move up to the sloping shelf above.  Match the slopers, traverse right until the shelf ends, and then make the crux move up to a sidepull.  Topout straight up on slopers.

Roughly a dozen climbable boulders of varying sizes are scattered throughout the Lower Fire Road area, although you'd never know it seeing as how they sit back in the woods.  The rock quality ranges from the less-than-ideal Fraggle Rock to the great Voodoo Boulder, and chances are you'll have it all to yourself.  The Voodoo Boulder sits atop a wash in the sun while the other boulders are more shaded.  The largest boulder in the area, the Project Boulder, may yield some difficult climbs if it ever sees traffic, and one of the smallest boulders is straight out of Blair Woods.  If you only get here once, climb the circuit starting at Fraggle Rock, moving to the Mudhoney Block, and ending on Voodoo.
