Corridor Arete - Castle Rock Bouldering

Joel and I went back to the Tree in the Wall boulders. We got to climb a new line that I spotted a few days back but could not complete because of the poor landing. The name of the climb is The corridor arete (V2).

Extension to the Crustacean Transformation route. Traverse right to the large hueco. Scary because the climb cannot be protected with crash pad, but not too hard.

New route that Ryan put a few weeks back. Start left hand in the crack side pull crimp and right hand sloppy hold, reach nob and dyno to large hueco. I do not have the name of the climb or the grade yet.

The nice (!!) crack is called Benoit's route (V0). On the right of the crack, unnamed route starts from a large hold and go up on fragile flake (V0).

Corridor arete (V2) starts right hand on tiny side pull crimp (chest high) and good left hold (over head). Match starting hold, go to the nice flake and fire to a large hueco.
