Emperor’s Choice

Climb up the right side of the boulder or tip toe in from the left. Follow ledges with not much gear to a good, finger-sized slot. Cut right to the arete, and clip the first bolt. Runner the 3rd bolt as it’s out of line with the rest. After the 4th bolt, pull the crux, then place a small cam or nut to back up a aluminum head. A mantel move that feels harder than it is, because you don’t want to test the aluminum head puts you on a stance where you can clip the fifth and final bolt. One more mantel, and you’re at the two bolt chain anchor.

Hopefully, if/when this thing gets rebolted, the 3rd bolt will be moved 3-4’ left.

This route starts on the right side of the boulder a few feet right of
