On the back rear arête. Sit start on the big jug under the overhung bulge. Stay true to the arête and make use of cool seams, compression, slopers, and balance intensive moves to grapple up to the top.

SDS to the right of the tree and head straight up the rounded, blunt arete.

On the main face of the boulder (uphill side), SDS on the crimp rail on the right end of the face (left of tree). Gaston out left into the crack then finish per Battle Rattle.

SDS on the detached flake. Move up to the rail then on up through good horizontals to top out.

On the left-most face, facing away from all of the other boulders (to the right of Battle of the Bulge) will be this line. Sit start left hand at the base of the long diagonal seam, right hand in a small crimp. Work up/right into the gastone chunk, and negotiate up to the long crack overhead. Slab up to finish.

Last route on the right side of the boulder. Follow the wide crack to the top!

The Battle Boulder is large and well featured, has great landings, and several fun lines.
