Another one of Bald Rocks's all out epic climbs. This stunning line starts on the right side on the rails just left of Enter the Colossus. Climb up to two great crimps at the overhang. Strenuous and technical moves on incredibly small crimpers leads to a jug 20 ft. off the deck. From the jug toss for the lip, mantle, and kiss the earth - you're alive! Thanks to Richie Martinez for having the vision on this one.

Vultures in Paradise

Orion

Fanciful Flight

Enter The Colossus

High Five

Start under the roof on the big jug on the far right side. Work your way left and up across the huge face using good holds and even better feet.

Start sitting 5' right of the arete of the Colossus Boulder on the small dihedral. Fire for the hand crack then move up and right across the face using great small holds.

Start on the left arete of the Colossus boulder down below the main landing area. Just behind the lower left corner is a finger crack to follow up the arete to a great horizontal. From here work your way up the arete to a great hollow flake, move right into a great horizontal. Fire up to the jug atop the flake on the arete, then work your up the arete using slopers and pinches to a decent flake just right of the arete up high. Continue to work the arete to the topout point of Orion. This climb has some very cool moves up the arete to the great mantle.

This line has it all... It is the 400 lbs. elephant in the room. Start on the right side of the Colossus boulder on the obvious jug under the overhang. Fire up to two perfect crimpers and prepare to Enter the Colossus. Fire though the next section of holds to the lip at 20+ ft. About as classy as you can imagine.

This colossal boulder is loaded with exceptional highball problems, featuring an amazing array of climbs and one of the best bouldering aretes in the state.
