The crux is a small bump with the right hand coming up from a match on a huge jug in the center of the problem.  Work those feet on the bottom!!!!

This route starts as for the cave in

The Warm-up Traverse

. Invert into the wide crack, and sit up into a rattly hand jam. From here, go for a tight ringlock, and bump your hand until you hit the perfect fingerlock. You can finish on the first ledge or continue to the topout. It is a lot more difficult if you choose to just use jams and no face holds for your feet and hands.

The arete that climbs up from what is being called the "

Soulja Boy Traverse

".

Sit start

Slots

to the ear.  From here, match, and start the journey all the way right side of the boulder. Slots, undercling, crimps, cross through, techy foot beta - it has a little of everything. If you want to add a heart-breaking but exciting ending, don't escape right to the arete and instead jump from decent crimps to a distant edge. Escaping is probably the more natural line, as it's obviously within reach while setting up for the jump. There are two exits, one slightly harder than the other, probably not a difference worthy of a grade.

This route is a series of small holds, starting with  either a small pocket, or another hold of your choosing, along the left crack. Maneuver up and right using the diagonal small cracks, until it makes logical sense to escape off right. The top is quite dirty.

This has most definitely been done before, it is being added so that it can be enjoyed in its own right. If you know the original name or first ascentionist, let me know and I'll update accordingly.

Start on an undercling pinch with the left and a good incut crimp with the right. Do a big right hand slap move to a sloper, match, and pull up to a big edge.

This problem starts in the same cave as

Part of a Warmup Traverse

. Instead of climbing out right (southwest) as

Part of a Warmup Traverse

does, climb the left-leaning crack directly above the cave.

Start in the cave, make your way out, and move up and over the tiered blocks following the main crack. Either downclimb V-easy to the left of the problem or continue up to a topout. For the topout, walk off to the northeast which allows a short downclimb to get to the base of the problem.

This problem was called "The Left Crack, V0" in

Colorado Bouldering: Front Range

by Benningfield and Samet. If there's a more accepted name, let me know and I'll update. I enjoyed this in its own right and thus have added it.

This is the route immediately to the right of

Gypsy Devil

, and the bottom is also a part of the longer wall traverse. Start just right of

Gypsy Devil

in a diagonal crack and move right to the arete with the use of additional horizontal/diagonal cracks. Continue up the blunt arete to a much higher better hold, and top out.

This has obviously been done before, I just added it so it can be enjoyed as its own route. Feel free to give me a more accepted name, and I'll update it.

Per

Colorado Bouldering Front Range

, this problem is listed as an unnamed V4.

This is an often overlooked problem to the right of the popular overhanging section of the Warm-Up Traverse. Start matched on the lowest pocket, and climb straight up for an easy topout.

Start with a LH crimp sidepull and RH on the jug sidepull with a high right foot. Make a big move to the sloper rail, and head up from there.

Start left hand on the good arete hold (6-7 feet up), and the right on a small, flat edge directly below the left about 16". Swing onto the wall, and shoot right hand straight right to an undercling about 4' off the arete. Bring the left hand up to a rounded dish above, and continue to easier terrain.

Sit start matched on a jug and [probably] swing over to hit the shallow crack with your right hand.  From there, you use some smaller holds to carefully position yourself to be able to reach the bomber boss jug at the top.  This is a fun problem that had obviously been climbed before we hit it up.

This problem was found, cleaned, and TR'ed by Tyson Ferryman. If you like scary and committing, this is your line. Basically this consists of a dyno from the dihedral to a jug on the arete. A fall could actually kill you.

Duo is an independent line that climbs directly up the face via sidepulls, pockets, and tension. Do a low start in the cave for full points or this can alternatively be done as a stand start from head-height jugs. Once at the sloping shelf, match, and trend left/up through the juggy (and dirty) crack. Red Xs in photo determine that the blocks to the left are off for hands and feet. The blue line indicates stand start jugs.

Sit down start on two sloping crimps on the east side of the boulder. Find a way to pull up to the sloping crimp up high and left, and then make your way up the arete until you can hit the good crimp out right on the north face of the boulder. From here, you are good to go. Topout however you wish.

This is another overlooked problem on the Darkside. Just to the right of

Warmup Pockets

and just before the end of the Warmup Traverse is a blocky prow with a short, left-angling crack at the bottom. Start sitting with finger-locks in the crack, and move up big, blocky holds. When you get to the steep part, grab the awesome big left hand rail, reach up right, and an arm length over the top with your left hand you'll find a really good in-cut pocket. Your target is to go basically tip of the overhang while mantelling just barely left.

This is the crack that runs diagonal left from the same start as

Gypsy Devil

. Move from the big, blocky start hold to a small chockstone in the crack followed by some hand-jamming to an easy finish at the apex of the small face. I know it's a little contrived, but don't use the slabby ramp at the bottom of the boulder.
