Start low in the hole on under cling pockets and edges. Move your feet up and use good holds to reach a large positive side pull near the top. Top out on very positive holds. Sort of a PG-13 landing because of the hole.

On the boulder just downstream from the man Riverside boulder. On the slab side. To the right of River Monsters. Sit start in a large under cling pocket with your right hand and use your right foot in the bottom of the same pocket. Brace yourself out left on the slab with your left hand. Power up and bring your right hand up to a crimp edge that runs vertically nearly the whole way up. Bring your left hand up to a similar edge out left, use bad feet to slap into a large sloper near the top of the slab and top out.

Sit start on an edge down low on the boulder directly downstream from the main Riverside boulder. Move up to a pocket on the arete with your left hand, then get your right foot on the start edge. Bring your right hand slowly up to a vertical crimp edge near the top of the boulder. From that, bring yourself to a standing position on the start hold. Traverse the slab on bad holds just below the top and almost nonexistent feet. Top out on slopers in the upper right-hand corner of the slab. The top is out until you reach the far right-hand corner.

Sit start on the corner of the boulder closest to the edge of the river. Make your way around the corner and up to the top on good pockets.

Sit start low under the roof (right-hand side of the boulder) on the side of the Riverside boulder opposite the river. The left hand is a good crimp edge and the right hand is an opposing edge down a little lower near the lip. Get a heel-hook around the side and move up to a good crack around the edge, follow it up to the top of the roof and top out on a good jug.

Sit start down low with a left-hand crimp under the roof and a right hand on an undercling low on the arete. Pinch the arete with your legs and lift off the ground to move your right hand into a crack around the side. Move up through the crack to the lip of the boulder into a huge jug. From the jug, traverse the lip the entire way until you get very close to the ground and there is no more roof underneath. Pull up and over with bad crimps and a left hand around a good corner at the end of the traverse. The holds are nearly non-existent on the traverse and it will beat up both your hands, wrists, and shoes.

The start and mantling up onto the big sloper edge are the crux. Sit start down low to the right of Lucy The Newfoundland of Oceania right next to the river. Use two hands on bad crimp side-pulls with a left foot as low as you can. Pull off the ground to reach up to some small crimps and slopers on the large sloper edge. Do an awkward mantle using various available holds and stand up. You can reach top out holds from the edge. There is a large jug to the left and up on top of the boulder that can be used to help top out.

This problem is on the smaller boulder just downstream from the Riverside boulder. Sit start on the side closest to Driftwood Direct, almost down in the water. The start is a small crimp edge, then reach up right to a good sloper pocket on the arete, from there make a dynamic move to the top of the boulder and top out.

Beautiful water featured Gneiss boulder sitting directly on the river. Lots of pocket and hole features.
