On the rounded end of the boulder closest to the road, stand-start mid-face in the deep jug rail. Trend left to a smaller edge and fall into a nice pinch. Grad the higher, small edge above the pinch and make a tough move to latch the rounded pebbly sloper side-pull. Finish up the bulge and over the mouth-like gap to top out the boulder.

Mother Mary (Stand)

Divine Arete

Proud Mary (Sit)

On the tallest, rear (away from road) face with the high pocket at the apex, the right arête is this climb. Sit start on the lowest chunk jug to the left of the arête corner. Trent right through the ledge rail to work on to the arête. Follow small holds up the arête directly to top out to the right of the top.

This is the sit-start to "Mother Mary"(V4). 

  Sit start far below the mid-face jug rail. Find the lowest three-finger pocket under the steep-ness at the end of the long sloper rails. 

  Start crossed (left hand in pocket, right on the sloper/pinch) with inventive feet, and move high to the small rounded crimp and higher pocket. Link into the start of "Mother Mary" and finish as per.

Greek: Θεοτόκος, transliterated (Greek) Theotókos, is the Greek title of Mary, the mother of Jesus. Its literal English translations include "God-bearer", "Birth-Giver of God", "the one who gives birth to God" and "Mother of God." 

  This is a long, tall, varied boulder low on the East Osborne hillside. Steep faces, arêtes, slabs, grippy sandstone, and in some places vicious pebbles. From easy-going to super project, this large, aesthetic, fun and challenging boulder has it all.
