Description

A very crimpy, balance oriented boulder. Begin with two phenomenal crimps, one for each hand, with your left foot raised onto a tiny edge, and your right foot shot out sideways against a nice obvious diagonal edge. The start of the end is when you round the corner to the right. You do not top out with a completely vertical route - that's "Pascals Triangle" (v4). Once you round the corner, the rest of the way up is VB- easy and self explanatory. Don't pat yourself on the back too early though- if you relax and slip, a fall will be pretty sketchy on this portion.

Location

Part of the outcropping that's opposite the main crag, almost immediately right of Pyramid Direct (if facing the outcropping)

Protection

Use several crash pads. Rounding the corner is the easy part (if you're tall), but it's the part where a fall would be sketchy.
