Hueco Simulator
Description
Not to be confused with the Ghetto Simulator at Hueco Tanks, this is the Hueco Simulator at the Ghetto. An integral piece of most of the long link-up problems, this is a fun romp in its own right, despite a bit of tight slot navigation about 2/3 of the way along.
This problem traverses just under the lip about halfway up the Upper Ghetto slot, crossing the tops of the cave problems (Inner Space) before returning to the lip via crimp moves out a rounded, hanging prow.
Begin at the jug of all jugs, the two-handed horn/plate atop After Hours. Reel left a move or two to another jug, then drop down 2 feet onto the system of holds that leads left into the darkness. Work heel hooks, etc. to keep your back off the slab, then cross the top of Inner Space and continue left a few feet to the round, slopey hueco on the hanging prow. Bust crux moves out the prow to the lip (a spotter is useful on these finishing moves).
Step off, continue along the lip traverse, or dive into S + M for further pump factor.
