Located around and right from

Hoi Polloi

on the south end of the boulder at some lumpy jugs and a grainy flake; there's also a whitish colored rock tucked against the boulder just left of the start.

Grab some high holds, pull up into an undercling and make a reach for a sloping dish. Mantle up and top out, heading slightly right to descend.

Some fun moves on this but the rock is a bit abrasive and the hollow holds don't inspire much confidence.

Located on the northwest face of the Hoi Polloi Boulder, about 8' right of

Prince Hoi

(V2) where the patina starts to become less uniform and more broken.

Start to the right of a lighter patch of rock shaped like the African continent, and work up incut patina edges and plates trending slightly left until they end and then finish up a grainy but solid slab (the slab finish is shared with Prince Hoi). The easy downclimb is found on the east (backside) of the boulder.

This is a study in contrasts with it's steep, positive holds at the start and lower-angled balancy slab as you get higher above the ground - classic Josh bouldering!

Standing start below two small crimps.   Make hard moves to gain a good left hand hold and then make harder moves to end up standing on the small crimps.

Reach up to better holds, and then pull through these to the top.

Begins on an incut rail under the roof on the left-most end of the boulder. Exits the roof on crimps and continues up the tall slab to finish.

Grab some head high jugs, pull up and over the small roof and gain a stance below the smooth chocolate slab. Make a few easy slab moves to gain a good edge and then enjoy the moves to the top.

This is a fairly tall problem but the positive nature of the moves make it easier to commit.

Located on the northwest face of the Hoi Polloi Boulder and just left of

Hoi Polloi

(V0) at a vague arete, and just left of a patch of lighter rock shaped like the African continent.

Grab a smooth edge/pinch on the arete and walk your feet high as you reach for a high right sidepull. Reel this in, grab the jugs up high and run up grainy slab to the top.

Start about 8' right of

Multi Grain

(V0) on a jug and make a long reach/toss up and left to a large edge. Swing left, match and mantle and finish up easy slab to the topout.

* Not listed in the Joshua Tree bouldering guide, but it's an obvious problem to be done on the boulder and perhaps worth inclusion to a circuit of the area.
