Rhockodendron

Description

The climb goes right to left. Start on the lowest part of the rock with an undercling right hand and a nice sidepull left. There are small huecos and jugs near the top of the boulder, but the crux is a short downclimb to a big stem & reach on small bumps until you find new huecos to continue the traverse. The topout is just before the rhododendron shoot that lives inside the rock.

Location

You'll find the boulder near the footbridge over Bussey Brooke from Valley Street (2 minutes from the South Street entrance). After you cross the bridge, walk uphill and to the left about 50 feet. The big, slabby climbing face is on the east side of the boulder where the landing is steep.

Protection

2 spotters and 2 crashpads, pretty sketchy landing....
