Start right on The Spoon and traverse left along the obvious ledge.

Unknown contrived dyno

Spoon Arête

Just around the corner to the right of The Spoon mantle problem you'll find a blank wall with some really small edges about 4 feet from the ground.  Start on these edges, moving up to another pair of microedges about 7 feet off the ground. Top out for the finish.

If only there was a decent foot...

The Spoon has on=e directive.  How much can you scare yourself mantling 10 feet off the ground?  Many a beached whale have been spotted here, as solid hands lead to highball sketchyness to pull you over the top.

This route is on the downhill side of the boulder, check the photo.

This is a contrived problem, but it's really fun so I decided to add it. Basically, you start on two head high crimps on the left side of the spoon problem proper. Get your feet up and dyno up and right to the lip. Careful not to hit the tree!

Climb the arete to the right of the classic Spoon Face problem. Delicate balance and core tension are crucial as you make your way up to a proper Castle Rock Sloper Mantle™
