  • Sit-start with left hand on arete and right hand groping for anything on the underbelly of the boulder. Use face holds, lip, and crack to head up and right. Top-out just left of the rubble. (FA Trent Hoover, 2014)
  • An eliminate - but an obvious, logical, and fun one! Start matched on the left end of the crack where it meets the arete. Follow the crack right, through increasingly difficult holds and moves, until it meets the lip of the boulder. Grab the horn to the right, and top out above. The lip of the boulder above/left of the crack is out. Sit-start, as per "Porcelain", to add a bit of length and difficulty.
  • V9. Crouch-start with left-hand edge just above lip, and right-hand flake crimp just below lip. Head directly up face above.

  • Sit-start with good left-hand dimple hold on arete, and right on good flat edge. Follow slopers and edges up and right to a fun changing-angle topout. (FA Kyle Marco, 2014)
  • V8. Sit-start using left-hand gaston edge, and right-hand on either another edge just below, or underclinging the low crack. Move up into the finish of "The Disease".
  • V8. Sit-start as per "Placebo" (left-hand gaston edge, right-hand low undercling in crack). After first couple of moves (crux), continue right, working feet up ramp and pressing over into top of "Mantle Master".
  • Stand-start using angling sloper shelf. Move left to sharp twin-crimps. Big move gains good lip holds, and top out. (FA Evan Erickson, 2015)
  • Start as per "Mantle Master". Climb the first couple of moves on that problem, then traverse right, over the pit, using a large, broken jug, followed by long, deep, positive edges.
  • Sit-start on blocky jugs under a large shelf. Move up to the shelf, and a large sloper edge before executing a tricky press off sloping fins to a long, diagonal edge. Continue up and slightly right to top out. (FA Trent Hoover, 2014)
  • V8. Stand-start. Pull on using opposing undercling edges under nose of blunt prow. Violent first move leads to an easier finish, exiting right. (FA Kim Lee, 2017)

  • This slab is slightly to your right when facing away from the problem "Porcelain", above. Start standing in the pit, and climb the middle of the slab. This line is tall and committing, with a bad landing and the crux at the top (going for the lip).
  • Climb the right side of the slab, with or without the blunt arete (hard to see in the photo, but it's just right of the red line, where the stripey rock turns a darker grey). The feet are at strange angles, making this line balancy and slippery, with a threatening dagger of rock at your back. Tread with caution!

  • V7. Sit-start at middle of face, with thin, incut crimp for your left-hand, and a right-hand micro-crimp. Move up and right to lip, then back left to top out at peak. (FA Mark Derksen, 2014)
  • V1. Stand-start with left-hand on sloping ledge/horn, and right-hand on whatever you can find. Move up, and slightly right, on good edges. (FA Trent Hoover, 2014)
  • An aesthetic, technical highball. Stand-start using sidepulls, and head towards the peak of the boulder via increasingly long and tenuous moves on okay holds, and poorly located and angled feet.
  • V3. Sit-start using low, incut left-hand edge, and higher right-hand sidepull edge. Move up and left, joining the top of "Rose Tyler".
  • V3. Sit-start at base of corner, using a slopey right-hand pinch, and either another slopey pinch or a prominent edge (on the lip of the corner) for your left-hand. Press up into dihedral, and continue up.

  • V2. Stand-start with a good, high edge, and make a big move to a good edge up and right. From here, use the arete feature on your left to continue to the peak of the slab.
  • V0. On the south face of the Bad Wolf boulder. Step on with high left hand edge. Move straight up the highball face, keeping dihedral feature on your left to top out. Very nice flat landing. (FA Dan Anhorn, 2016)

  • Sit/crouch start with a low right-hand sidepull, and left-hand undercling rail (or very low sidepull). Make a couple of moves straight up, then decide between compressing the arete out left, or dynoing to the flat jug up and right. Gain the shelf above, and top out.
  • Start as per "Lupa". Dyno to the flat jug up and right, then continue up and right to a tricky top out.
  • V7/8. Sit-start matched on massive left-facing jug-rail. Traverse directly left, all the way around the arete, finishing up the slab.
  • V6. Sit-start matched on the massive left-facing jug-rail. Climb up and left, joining "Lupa". (FA Mark Derksen, 2016)
  • V4. Sit-start, matched on huge left-facing jug. Climb the right side of the face, using the arete on your right, and topping out directly onto the sloping topout. (FA Mark Derksen, 2016)
