A tall and proud new skool classic.  Stand start using small crimps.  Make a hard move up and left, then continue crimping up a steep patina headwall over a scary landing.

The landing zone has evolved from a wooden pallet to a terrace of rocks.  One of the best of its grade in Bishop.

Starting from the middle of the face, find the easiest way up and left through the long scoop feature.

Start as for Fly Boy (stand), do a few moves and grab what is normally the right hand on Fly Boy with your left hand. Climb out right to a good crimp and make a committing move to the lip.

Start on the high jug and sidepull, move up on steep sidepulls and a crimp to a big move for the lip.

Try the sit-start to the left to add some spice...

This problem climbs the arete to the top of the boulder on good rock. Classic status is denied because you can rock over at the good holds mid route. Sit start low and follow the arete all the way to the top.

Do some work on the landing if you like, the DRL's that climbed this are kind of lazy about that sort of thing.

Crawl into the little cave underneath the Five and Dime Boulder. Sit start and climb out onto the face to join Five and Dime Left.

Sit start on a smooth left hand edge and a nice right hand sidepull. Pull on with a large but slick foot and lock off to a small but good edge.

From here keep the tension and trust your feet in order to gain a small left hand incut crimp. A few more solid moves lead to a nice upper section and a pleasant topout!

This climb is technical and powerful and has some incredible rock quality while also being constantly shaded!

Leftmost problem on Five and Dime boulder. Easy and not interesting if you are tall enough to start from the good hold.

Small polished patina crimps and slick feet lead to a big toss for the lip off a tiny left-hand crimp.

Warm your fingers up before attempting...

A pretty good V3 on the back of the Flyboy Boulder. Slightly overhanging.

Start standing with a good left side pull and a crimp for the right. Go up to decent holds at the lip. Good moves and nice crimping/footwork problem for the grade.

Sit-start goes at about v5.

Start as for the Flyboy sit start and move left to the arete and up.  Crimpy and good.

A low start to The Fall Guy.  Do some crazy over-the-head heel hooking to solve the linkage into the start of The Fall Guy.  Classic!

Named after a book by Salman Rushdie.

Start down and left of the stand to 'Flyboy' and head up and right on crimps to join the crux dyno of 'Flyboy'.

Start by leaning off an adjacent boulder, then follow a line of mostly pretty good holds up and right to a long reach way off the deck.  Technically it's a notch easier than Jedi Mind Tricks but instead of the crux being the first move, it's the last.

Great rock, cool moves and a distinct line: total classic.

This balancy problem on the Five and Dime Boulder goes up the center of the face, starting from the ground (not the lower boulder on the right).

This line through the center of the face starts where the lower boulder and the Five and Dime boulder meet.

Walk up on a tiny boulder to start. Establish on the wall and go straight up until there are holds that lead up and right. Very glassy.

Start as for Fly Boy Sit and climb into Flight Attendant.

The arete 15 feet left of stained glass over a rocky landing.  Sharp, grainy, and hard.
