Variation on Beer Run set by Micheal Spear. Same start as Beer Run but instead of smearing your feet low across the rock, climb up and across using the handholds as feet. Keep your hands off the top and upper ridge of the boulder and balance your way across with hands and feet very close together. Stay high all the way across the front face until meeting up with the last few moves of Double Rainbow.

Begin with an odd squat-start. Traverse out to the right across the face of the boulder. Very little help from your feet for the first third of the route while hands move across crimpy ridges ac foot or two down from the top of the boulder. Take a short rest when you hit the nice dihedral platform to stand on, then keep moving right to link up with the last few moves of Double Rainbow to finish.Not sure if this route is in local guides but it's the first line I saw when approaching the Bluff Boulder.

From Peter's Guide to Duluth Bouldering, "Sit start on the boulder in crimps on a hairline crack. Go up to a super cool small block pinch, then work up and right to an easy top out."

From Peter's Guide to Duluth Bouldering, "Sit Start on an array of crimps. Hit a good ledge on the arete then top out on slopers."

From Peter's Guide to Duluth Bouldering, "Stand start on a left sidepull, a shart crimp, or a triangular slot. Powerful moves head straight up to another mantel top out. Don't work into the arete."

From Peter's Guide to Duluth Bouldering, "Stand start on some slopers. Climb up big slopey ledges to a nice top out."

From Peter's Guide to Duluth Bouldering, "Stand start on a cool undercling. Shorter people might have to use the boulder to get into the undercling. Get established on the wall, then throw big to the lip or crimp your way up the face. Press out the mantel finish."

From Peter's Guide to Duluth Bouldering, "Sit start on a variety of crimp flakes. Double bear hugging arete climbing to a juggy top out."

Visualized and named by Brandon W. Squat start on a left hand sidepull and a right hand crimp, left foot placed on a ledge and right foot placed on a small flake. Left move out to the triangle pocket followed by a foot move up leads to a fun dynamic move up to the solid jug (thus the name). Possibly climbed before, but a good warmup on a seldom used face of the boulder.

Shortcut variation on Beer Run. Same start, feet smear across with hands up higher on crimpy ridges. After you hit the dihedral platform for your feet, climb up and slightly to the right to top out (same as Smokey The Bear) rather than continuing on to the Double Rainbow linkup finish. 

From Peter's Guide to Duluth Bouldering, "Sit start same as Double Rainbow but follow a series of good holds around the left side of the arete."

From Peter's Guide to Duluth Bouldering, "Sit start same as Short Stack but head left to a triangle slot. Traverse along this slopey ledge until you can top out."
