Up Into The Green Silence
Description
This is basically the direct line of '3 Speed On Vinyl' (aka 'Medicine Man'). Start standing on the large chalked jug shelf (same start as '3 Speed'). Grab a sidepull crimp with your left hand, move your feet around and do a foot/hand match with your right heel on the starting hold. Rock up and reach high to a good right sidepull (crux). Bump left hand to another good edge. From here, the top out is relatively straight forward on good holds. This problem is more logical and less contrived than '3 Speed' and is definitely easier. The landing is flat, the movement is great and it's just high enough to add some excitement.
I'm not sure if this problem has been done before. If it has, feel free to let me know and I'll change the info to match that. Based on the condition of the top out holds, I would guess that if it has been climbed before, that hasn't happened in quite a while...
Location
This problem starts the same as '3 Speed', but goes directly up. It more or less faces 'Zig Zag Crack'.
Protection
A couple of pads are sufficient.
