Directly behind the overhung side of the main French Quarter boulder, there is a smaller boulder with a twelve-foot face facing downhill. Sit start in a hairline crack and move straight up into one of the most perfect slopers that you will ever feel - too bad its on a two-start problem and not somewhere better) - from the sloper, go straight up using various edges and cracks to top out.

Sit start to the right of KYS on a very large obvious flake utilizing the good undercling. Move straight up and over the edge into a crack, turn the move into another undercling so that you can stand up and reach a horizontal crack up high. From the horizontal crack, move right to the right-hand arete. Make sure not to barn door off during this move of the following moves to the top. Work up the arete to the top.

Sit start with a strange left-hand undercling pinch and a right-hand pocket crimp to the right of Geronimo on the right-hand arete. Work straight up the arete to the top.

To the right of Aurochs Dance around the arete. Sit start low in an obvious crack feature and make a big move up to a horizontal crack. From the crack, make another big move up and right with good feet to a decent crimp jug. Get high feet, and reach up with your left hand into an interesting pocket feature. Bring your right hand up to a nearby crimp, and move left into a crack to top out on good holds.

Kind of a silly problem. Sit start to the far-right of Tommy G on two sloper side pulls just below a slopey lip. Slap to the slopey lip and mantle up.

Stand start on an obvious slanted right jug on the right-hand side of the tall face (back side) of the French Quarter. Move off of the jug to the right into thing sidepulls with okay feet. Get high feet and grab a large and obvious sidepull edge up and right. From there, top out on good holds.

Sit start to the right of Loin Cloth on a good right-hand edge and a good left-hand crack edge higher up. Get a high right foot on the right-hand start hold and shoot up and right to a crack. Move straight up the face to top out at the highest point.

On the back side (tall face) of the French Quarter sit start in a thin vertical crack on the left-hand side (Same start as Windy and climbs into Aurochs Don't Dance). Move up the crack to a good edge to the right. From the edge, use bad crimps high up with high feet. Position yourself so that you can throw to a sloper edge below the log laying over the top of the boulder. Top out to the right of the log.

Sit start with a bad three-finger left-hand crimp and a bad right-hand crimp to the right of Pommes Frites and to the immediate right of a large tree up against the boulder. Slap right with bad feet and bad start holds into a very juggy crack, move up the crack left, and get high feet to slap up to a sloper edge high up. Mantle on the sloper edge and top out at the highest point.

A very large boulder above the powerline that offers high balls, low balls, slab climbing, overhung climbing, crimps, slopers, and jugs.
