This is the short, rounded, slopey and slabby arete and side of the boulder to the right of the beautiful "Houdini" (V6).Stand start t the arete and a bit to the right, left hand on a thin iron crimp and right hand on the single white pebble. Post up on a high foot in the seam. Mantle the slopey bulge and top out. 

Escape Artist Arete

Escape Run

Houdini

One of the best in the field and one of the more unique moves.Stand start with your left hand side-pulling low on the juggy left side of the face at the crack, right hand side-pulling a low thin edge. Move right to the crimp and toe hook high by your left hand. Toss far and wide out to the far right sloper arete. Work up the boulder to top out at the upper right corner.

Hard to grade such a thing but fun to try. At the same face as "Escape Artist" sprint at the boulder, jump/kick off the slabby bulge, latch the rail and top out.

Just beyond the Bacon Boulder when heading into Back Boulders. Comfortable height, absolutely bullet fine grit sandstone, barely there ripples and excellent slopers. Landing is flat.
