Located in the corridor on the north facing side of the Old Man Boulder. Traverse right to left and/or left to right on the north face. For full value, traverse entirety of Old Man Boulder, i.e., south to west to north faces or vice versa (this would be significantly harder and increase the graded level).

High Tide Traverse

V3/5.11

Southwest Arete

The Sandwich (The Buttwich)

Starts on good holds in the middle of the face of the Old Man Boulder. Moves up and left and tops out around where the bolted anchors are. Crux is probably moving past the pictured gaston to some tougher holds near the top. Top out can be sketchy because of dirt and plants.

Stand start with hands matched on a high hold. Use the crack below the big obvious bulge and the bulge to climb up. You can sit on the rock once you get above this point and then hop down, or you can keep going and top out and use the backside to walk down. If anyone has info on the history of the route please share.

Fun problem starting low on the south face of the Old Man Boulder. Climb up to your right with the finish wedged in the large crack in the rock. Can sit in the crack before the down climb.
