SDS (the same as for

Flower Pot Right

) but stay low and move left to an obvious scoop and then up to a juggy finish. Short but quality with some enjoyable moves on good stone.

This problem is rated the same as the right variation in the Dr. Topo guide (V4) but it seems very easy for the grade.

Many variations / eliminants problems exist among the different huecos, pockets and various "flower pot" jugs on this problem.

Sit start with legs astride the edge. Pull up and work your hands up to positive holds on the arete. Finish by mantling onto the top of the block.

Sit start off of the right facing thin flake.  Make your way to the lip using crimpers and slopers - the flower pot jug awaits you at the top.

Although rated V4 in the guidebooks and topos, the problem feels much easier than that.

Note:  Officially named "unnamed" in the guidebooks, "Flower Pot Right" is the unofficial name that some climbers have attached to this problem.   If anyone knows the FA and the properly given name, I'm more than happy to change it.

Sit down start to

.

Poor feet and good finger locks soon give way to the easier climbing on

The Crack

.

Climbs the obvious crack system on the right side of the west face.

The holds improve as you gain height, but take care because the landing is not pretty.

Move up from the under cling. First move is great, but probably the crux.

When I put this up back in July of 2013, I didn't find anything on this problem and did quite a bit of cleaning, so it probably hadn't been climbed in a while.

Start with a couple of balancy moves, then up onto better holds.   Positive finishing holds are welcome, as a fall from the top would be unpleasant.

Around the corner to the left of the overhanging crack problem, find a slopey bulge at about head height. Mantel the bulge and top out.

Start between the tree and the rock and work your way up along solid crimps and good feet. Top out on very textured slopers.

The new guidebook calls this "Corridor Overhang."
