Piece of Cake

Description

Unique movement for Culp on an overhanging compression arete. Lowball. It's just as fun as it is small.

Start right hand on a low lip of the arete and left hand on an incut flake on the overhanging face (solid near the top). Either bump to a better lip up the arete, or make a bigger move directly to a large flake on the overhanging face. Hit the top and rock over left/mantle.

The name is actually ironic as I had trouble figuring out this problem. I had some foothold breakage and the top has a tricky tension to it. Also, the boulder looks a bit like a literal piece of cake.

Location

You have to go under or around the problem to best access Owen's Rage + Topaz. It's the boulder directly downhill a few yards.
