Description
Begins on the East Face of the Diamond Boulder. Begins at climber's right at the base of the diagonal finger crack. Start on generous crimps until you can get a fingerlock in the crack. Make your way up and left through the fingercrack until you reach the end where jugs appear at weakness in the rock. From here move straight up through jugs to the top. Descend down the north side of the boulder on a friction slab.
Location
Park at either of the Roadside Rocks parking areas and continue past Woody's Arete and Tendon Repair Kit past Big Blocks area until you make your way to the huge overhanging boulder known as The Diamond. Easiest to hike around the south-side of the boulder to the east face, can also hike around the north side, moving past the Bitch Slap Arete Boulder on your left.
Protection
Finger sized gear, 0.1-0.75 X4s. Perhaps a pad for the initial moves if you aren't confident on the fingerlocks.
Can protect a second or set a toprope at the top with a #2 and #3 camalot between flakes. extend with cord as the rock is very coarse.
