Grandfather Clock Boulder

1. Grandfather Clock SDS V5 star

From a seated-ish position, pull on the under bulging arête and make a long toss up and to the right, followed by an awkward top-out. Shorter climbers may need to stack pads for the crux start. Reach high! 🏋️

2. Slab #0 V0 star

A great introduction to slab climbing. Go straight up the face. Welcome to the world of slabs! 🌐

Ascend the slab utilizing the arête. Climb on!

5. Lucky Lady V3 star

Start with obvious holds. Enjoy a few fun moves followed by an awkward downclimb. Watch your step! 👣

Engage in a fun start, then transition to technical face climbing to gain the right arête hidden in the bushes. Find the hidden path! 🌿

Heartbreaker Boulder

Located on the small boulder opposite the main cluster.

7. Heartbreaker V8 star

Start matched on the furthest left sweet spot on the rail. Delightful moves across the rail serve as a warm-up for the crux top-out. A very unique and aesthetic bloc. Enjoy the beauty! 🎨 (FA G. Losier 2004)

An easy route to access the area above. Climb with ease! 🚶

9. Booby Trap V4 star

Experience great climbing on juicy underclings, finishing on progressively harder high rolling slab. Roll with it! 🌀

10. The Grouch V8 star

Starting at the bottom of the hole, climb up using arêtes to reach a crux hand jam. Super unique with cool movement. Get jamming! 🍯 (FA G. Losier 2004)

Hobbit Hole Boulder

Located behind Bobby Trap, can be accessed by following the short trail left 5 meters before arriving at Bobby Trap.

11. Hobbit Hole SDS V3 star

Located in a cave around the back of the Booby Trap boulder. Begin low in the cave, climb out of the seam on pleasant jugs to a crux mantle. A unique little line. Step out of the shadows! 🌓
