Take Me Bowdering, Big Man

Description

This problem starts with a left hand on the lowest undercling, a right on the closest rail on the right arêt, and super challenging feet. I started low on the rail, but I think it makes more sense to start high. I've circled my original start hold, and a suggested start hold and posted it in the photos. From there, make a very powerful right hand move to a good sloper knob, then work your way to the jug on the top of the face through a series of underclings and crimps. From there, I exit right by climbing Gettin' Bodied (v4-5). There is an alternate exit that climbs left and tops out on the face, but it's an extremely committing sloper mantle and I decided against it.The opening move is the crux, and felt on the upper end of v8 for me on it's own. That said, the alternate suggested starting hold may make that a bit easier. All in all, it may be harder than 8 but I want to get some feedback from others first as I've spent too many sessions on it to judge at this point.

Location

On the third tier right near the cliff. If you walk up from the tier two boulders and traverse left you'll come to it in 150 feet.

Protection

4 pads and a spotter.
