Variation of Loosening The Lid this problem just keeps going out to the corner and the slightly around the corner and up. Makes it full value V6 I believe. Great problem and great Heel Hooking if that's what your looking for.

The Big Squeeze

Loosening the Lid

From Fizz to Flat

Canned Heat

Canned Heat is the obvious line you can see on this block when looking up at it from the Lily Pad boulder. SDS low on crimps. Make one powerful move to the lip and work the interesting holds to mantle. Hard transition.

"Loosening the Lid" is a burly sit-start problem on the Southern side of the "Loosening the Lid" Boulder.  Start with a right hand on a good ledge, left under the arete and use a heel hook somewhere in there, then move up decent holds and work out to the arete.  The landing is excellent, but slightly sloped.

SDS matched on a pinch beneath the roof. Trend left through the roof to gain a slope-y granite lip. Follow the entire lip, pulling the mantle just before reaching the corner.

Host to a powerful problem on its southern face, this boulder lies downhill (South) from Half Dome (the large, prominent spire to the South of Mt. Baldy), and to the West and uphill from the Hueco Wall, East and slightly uphill from the Lillipad Boulder.
