Description

A more manageable affair than King Ghidorah, this was the line the went down first. It climbs from the inside of the cave out, which seemingly makes the inverted movement easier. As with King Ghidorah, it's likely easiest for those with big hands.Stand start in the back of the cave on handjams and swing into an invert. Shuffle a few feet towards the road to where the crack narrows to fists/stacks. It quickly opens back up to offwidth, but feet appear and the lip becomes more positive, making it easier to "cheat." Burly underclinging leads to easier scumming past the lip.

Location

In massive cave on the far side of the Goliath boulder. This climbs the inside of the 5' tall covered passage between what Adirondack Park Bouldering calls the Goliath and Passage boulders, starting from good handjams just past the point where the crack rises up an easy slab. The problem climbs towards the road. 

Protection

Tape up to your elbows maybe, the rock is sharp. A couple pads. And long pants, taping the cuffs in place or tucking them into socks is a good trick.
