-
Ned Schneebly: Leave your pads folded in a jenga tower to get high enough that the start position is relatively easy. If yah know, yah know.
-
chloek: Left foot below the break, pull on, then quickly swap to the high right foot. -
Lena laitinen: High right foot on the smear, fire straight for the crimp over the lip! -
Bertmacklin_fbi: Highest right foot you can -
jeffreywong: High right near the crescent.
-
Luka Stojkovic: High foot beta. -
Scott Benish: High right foot to start. The really high one. -
Tucker Webb: The highest right foot imaginable and if you don't have someone to show you it you will probably miss it, but it's amazing. Unless your good with super high steps and flexible then you will need to stack the pads. But it's worth it.

For years just establishing felt like project. Six months ago, I figured out how to start but pulled my lower back while working it. Today I joined some friends on a whim while hiking out - I had limited time as I'd missed 5 calls from my girlfriend who was locked out of the apartment, and no expectations to send given the constraints. A few tries feeling out the foot and it went. Just like that. My LH even fired off sloper at the top, but I sucked myself back on somehow. -

So hard for me

Unexpected send with a bit of beta I copied from Lor!
-
-
Very morpho or stack pads required, meh
-
-
Love this one. Techy and powerful. 4th go!

Hardest part was being able to bring my foot up high enough to start the problem.
-
found it super hard until I stacked all 9 of our pads. that helped a lot because I was at the last move. sent that pretty quick.
-

No pad stack
-

Better than I thought it would be -
-
Did the no pad stack start to maximize the no feet
-
Yay the trips off to a good start! Glad to get this one out of the way as it eluded me last year. Not the best tbh, but worthy as it marks the entrance to the forest. Pad stack ftw

Tricky

Many slaps later.. -

Took three sessions to figure this one out. -
-
2023-03-09Hard to start. -
Psyching on this. Conditions were so good which helped. 2am sends are great. -
Missed season by one day, but found this semidry feature. 2nd go. -

took a few tries to get the right hand solid -

second try -
2022-09-176 sessions. Was about 12 degrees in the morning, holds felt crisp, first try of day. -
Dropped my right foot to weigh the left. First 7! -
-
2022-08-04 -
Chest high right foot and left push foot. First move is accurate!

Kinda fun. Dicey feet, being somewhat tall/flexible helps. -
3rd try. Almost flashed but dry fired! Urggg! Really nice climbing but kind of an eliminate and not many moves. Hold quality is sick, standing on crystals! -
Movement that almost defines Squamish bouldering. For many years could not pull off the ground but felt pretty doable this year, using a high left heel hook next to the hands. First 7 of the season!
-
-
Short and sweet ! Pasted those feet on hard -
-

3rd go -

I hate this problem
-
No such thing as strength, only good conditions.
-
2022-01-26Lord Jesus that friction
-
-
2022-01-23 -
-
-
It's fine. Good one to hit up if you're alone and have two pads.
-
-
Not my favourite one move wonder, but it's still incredibly satisfying to do.
-
-
2021-04-10Slightly different foot beta to start, but works for me!
-
-
Feet felt sticky today -
-
-
-
First outdoor V7 and in one session! Just gotta stick the micro footholds.
-
-
-
Rad! First Squamish V7. Technical climbing used to be a weakness of mine, so it’s really cool to see it slowly turning into a strength!
-
-
-
-
-
-
Good holds but terrible feet. Classic! -
-
I like it -
Felt super tough with the wrong feet and then super chill with the right feet.
-
2020-02-10Last one of the day mustered so much try hard once the feet stuck I almost fell of the back of the boulder. Headlamp send. -
-
2019-12-01 -
I’ve been avoiding this problem for a while because I wasn’t able to pull off the ground 2 years ago. Surprised myself when I was able to send in a handful of tries this time around. Progress!

Excellent short climb. Used unconventional beta for that one!!!

Love them slopers

Got CRUCIAL foot beta. Did it 3rd try 2nd session. -
2019-05-20High left toe on a micro foothold was the key to establish the first move. Pretty techy but fun. -
2019-04-01
-
The send of the day for me! only took a few tries to refine the starting moves beta and send!
-
Whichever beta you use, you have to trust the foot holds and smear like you mean it. -
2019-03-30So many years to get this one. Very precise footwork, like vertical slab climbing. Sent it the old school way. -
-
-
Retro flash! So good -
Intricate but so smooth once it goes. -
Meh
-
This was a verrry frustrating climb until I figured out how to go up
-
So hard.
-
2018-08-21...not really crimpy if you use your feet... tricky part is finding the good footholds
-
Very condition dependent. Need friction for sticking feet and slippery bump hold at the lip.
-
-
Good if you like crimps!
-
-
2nd go... should have flashed this one
-
My tendons weren't that happy about this one.
-
-
Woah -
-
2018-05-16 -
2018-05-14 -
Surprised myself when I stuck that crimp then absolutely refused to fall of once I caught it. -
Been trying this one a couple of times every time I’m in Squamish, finally decided to buckle down and go for it. -
2018-03-18
-
Felt easy with the high foot, but I stacked pads. Day flash after trying once last year with the low feet, which indeed felt much harder.
-
-
oddball. hate climbed it. went 2nd try in 30 degrees F
-
The boulder asks, "Can you smear?" -
Really fun problem. The smeary feet at the start were sooo hard to trust! Super magical feeling when they stayed put :)
-
Pretty tough on the feet, but worth doing -
-
-
How many stacked pads before you're cheating? -
-
Hilarious climb

2017-06-11Worked this about a year back and got nowhere. Third try today!
-
Really tweaky on the fingers. Honestly, this climb kind of sucks
-
Never would have expected to get this within my first 2 years of climbing. 2 sessions! -
Neat footwork. Happy to tick off another classic Squamish 7.
-
2017-05-17Sent this on my third session with all of my friends cheering me on and it was one of the best feelings ever! I was speechless
-
Such a dope problem. Well worth the technical dilemma. 2nd go.
-
2017-04-02techy and beta intensive line. -
Couldn't get off the ground first session. Second session with the crispy conditions and right beta went very smooth. -
Good times when the only dry boulder is the one you wanted to climb!
-
-
-
-
Super fun.

Took a handful of sessions to get to the crimp. Today was the day! Stoked to finally check this off.
-
Took me 2 days to stick the high crimp. Didn't bump from the intermediate sloper.

ughh. Goes quickly with the high foot beta start. One move wonder...if you can even call it a wonder
-
Felt impossible with the low feet, used the high right foot and it went pretty fast after that. Had a nice resounding slap from the lip to the crimp!
-
2015-07-31 -
Another magic problem squamish provides. Followed the start by the guide book, felt impossible until found the balance. This is the kind of climb had to start the way it should, otherwise, not as high quality as the grade. Tried the matching the start with high step after send this thing, totally get why ppl calling this thing soft.
-
-
really had to trust the starting foot -

Funky -
Sent it years ago and have not been back until today. Felt hard in the heat but super fun problem!
-
Beautiful climb
-

Third or fourth try. Siked on my addicts on the tiny feet!
-
Fun, but after figuring out high foot beta it seemed easy for the grade.
-

I shocked myself getting this in one session. -
End of the day. No skin left -
2014-08-14

it's over too quick -
2014-08-12Feels impossible, until it's not. Fell off at the top the day before, after a number of attempts. First try this day.

So much fun when you actually try it! Good footwork training!
-
The poor, poor man's Karma. Great way to finish an awesome trip. -
Chest height right foot beta!
-
Used a really high foot smear.
-
2014-04-12Went super quick. Another short and sweet one.
-
a great finish to an awesome day in the forest - felt so good today! -
one of the only dry problems we found, was pretty sticky. wouldn't wanna try this in the summer!
-
2013-12-03Nice and sticky rock today :) -

Notorious climb for me, didn't think it mattered how strong I got, doubted I could send it for a long time. I finally stuck the sloper and managed to bump to the crimp, then I got it 5 times in a row to the crimp and just had to figure out my feet. Found scrunchy feet and then a huge thrutch to the jug on the lip left. PSYCHED!

This problem frustrated the hell out of me... nice to finally top this one. Everything felt solid and the send felt so much easier than any of my previous attempts.

I'm guessing on the date but I believe it was something like 14 years ago when I first climbed this amazing problem. Always happy to pull off a repeat, like the one I managed last night. A quintessential Squamish classic.
