Radical Erratic
Description
I'm not sure if people know about this climb but its fun and I figured I should post it. This climb is somewhat mossy and the handholds are somewhat difficult to find since this whole section of rock is a bit chunky. There is a roughly V0/V1 variation you can do if you topout after the first few moves on some holds that are usually pretty dirty.
The climb traverses from right to left and stand starts on a two hand jug on the arete. Traverse left as you bump your way though several chunky and somewhat slopey handholds. The crux is probably near the end where feet become scarce.
Location
This problem is on the same boulder as Spook. If you are at the route Spook and then go through the arch between the two boulders it will be on your left across from the V0 warmup slab, to the left/ around the corner from the Spook down-climb, and to the right of Pump it Up and Shredder. The start of the climb is to the left of the Spook down-climb and the climb tops out at the cleaned off ledge for Pump it Up and Shredder, then there is a somewhat muddy/mossy patch so watch yourself when you scramble up the boulder.
Protection
3 or 4 pads and a spotter is nice, 2 pads and an attentive spotter would work.
