Subtle, powerful, and sought-after. This line is among the most beautiful in the southeastern US, and climbs exceptionally well. Many come to Rocktown to climb this boulder alone. Tales abound of very strong accomplished climbers leaving empty-handed. 

  Start in the middle of the face on underclings. The left undercling is a big obvious choice. The right undercling is less obvious (2-3 right hand undercling choices), so I will leave it to you to find the videos online to see what others have thought about what is the appropriate place to start. Get your feet on the wall, and start doing these incredible, tensiony, balancey, fluid moves between holds that aren't quite angled the way that you would like them. 

  This is often called the best problem in Rocktown (or even the south east), but that's a hard thing to say to the 99.5% of people who visit that will not be able to do it.    I think it's probably the best problem harder than v8 in Rocktown. It gets the "best ever" title because it is absolutely incredible, and it is incredibly hard, and we love what we can't have, right? A great many problems are just as special for their grades in Rocktown, just as this one is special for v10. So enjoy the area for having some of the best problems for their grades in the States.

This is what the locals refer to as "the best climb here, it's got a little of everything"  Start on a jug, slap left then right to slopers...fun slopey mantel.  Classic

Climb the flat vertical following shallow pockets and crimps to the top.

Start with a gaston and a pocket. Climb up the center face of the boulder.

The arete left of Swamp Sauce. Sit start with obvious pocket for left, and a slopey undercling for your right. Move directly up the bulge using bad holds. 

The Scoop's big brother. Blue tackles an aesthetic steep slab and a slopey arete.

Cool arete behind Golden Showers. Start low on an undercling and slap your way up the arete. Hit the slopers at the lip and finagle your way to the top.

A pretty grey arete with a mono or two, otherwise blankness. Find a way to sit start directly below the arete and move up and top. The landing is sloped back and you will need spotters. 

One of the best boulders at Rocktown. Home to classics like Golden Shower, Golden Harvest, and...yeah the others are still really good! Go climb them!
