Description

"The only roof problem in Vantage"

This is probably the most fun boulder problem in this area behind onidevadikim if that's how you spell it. The only problem where you are actually climbing on a roof, albeit a short one, that is parallel to the ground. You start with good feet and an incut semi juggy crimp and another crimp for your right hand. Get to the jug ledge just above where the roof ends using the very large crack to keep yourself attached to the under cut wall. Footwork is imperative for making the transition to the roof. You will be parallel with the ground so having a spotter is important to have if you end up falling backside down. The second most difficult move is transitioning to the roof. The crux is making the finishing move to the ledge from the crack. I had a lot of fun projecting this with my buddy and I'm sure you will too. It could be harder than V4, if you think it is comment below.

Location

The location of this route is very easy to find. It is on the north side (

the dark side

) of the columns there on the eastern end that is a little higher than all the other routes there. It looks like someone undercut the wall there.

Protection

1 pad, 1-2 spotters.
