Description
Fun little climb on the backside of the Man Cave boulder. Hike around, trying to be gentle with the flora, and find a cool pillar sculpted into the rock by two huecos at about 6-7 feet.
We found a few variations in here.
Starting standing on left is a nice line with a cool topout. v0/1
Starting standing right is also good, with a more difficult topout. v1/2
Sit start on the left is tricky/awkward, but when you do it right, it actually feels really good. You can use that to go straight up to the left hueco into a rad sloper and finish straight up. I'd say this is how we justify v3.
The next variation is to SS left, and finish up and right. The SS is the hard part, and you get to do the more technical finish. v3/+.
Climb gingerly, some of these features are a little fragile.
Location
Back side of the Man Cave boulder, which is in Monkey Boy area - start by finding Sichuan Peppercorn/Kung Pao, look behind you and see the disappointing Man Cave. Then walk around right of the boulder until you find two cool huecos back there, forming a little pillar. Fun abounds.
Protection
2 pads is nice for uneven landing.
