When He Was a Young Warthog
Description
When He Was a Young Warthog (V0 - V0+) starts with left hand on the nice rail and right hand on a three finger crimp. Left foot on a small shelf and right foot on your choice of wall or other features. After getting static on your first holds use both hands on the top edge of the boulder and walk the rail down to the triangular point to mantle over the edge. Walk off to the left. This is a safe edge and rail to work on hand and footwork crossovers and a small degree of inversion.

A crash pad is always good but if you are out hiking this boulder can be worked safely without any pads at all. Just inspect the ground for ants, snakes, etc before you go rolling around.
This rock features additional moderate and challenging lines which should be added April - May 2020.
Location
Pumbaa Rock is just southwest of Thunderdome and just below Briar Patch wall and Tar Baby route. Should receive shade all day.
