The Borg
Description
This is a fun little crimp problem. Start on the left with your hands and foot in the obvious crack (hands on the obvious sloper, flat toed shoes are helpful), and work your way right until the crack ends. A few more desperate crimp moves up the face lead to the top.
The bouldering guide by Bagdonas gives this problem V11; however, one of the crux crimps broke off while I was working on it, making the end quite noticeably harder with very different beta. The new end beta also strongly encourages staying higher on the problem the whole way, which I found more enjoyable.
Location
This is just off the parking lot at the end of the easternmost road that wraps around the southern side of old easy, below Desiderata and Dancing All Night. Follow the trail a very short distance to the fence and follow that directly up to the first boulder, which has The Borg on it's northern side.
Protection
A pad.
