Sit start low under the boulder on the bottom rail with feet to the left on another deep rail. Bump up to the next rail and match. Make a blind left hand bump overhead to the sloper lip, and then to a small sloper. Press up to the big knob and then mantle over.

Smooth Criminal

Sister Mantle

Parlier's Sister

Sister Extension

Criminal Minds

A nice mantle problem.

 Start at the massive notch in the "Sister" arete/lip traverse, and press a mantle directly up over the notch to gain knobs that assist in the top out.

start under the boulder, with a right hand on a thin flake crimp, a left heel hook, and a left hand on a feature over the lip of the boulder. pick up and make a shouldery move up and right to a crystal chunk and then to a rail to the right. follow through to a further rail and a large bulge where you will mantle up. stand up and then either hop off or unnecessarily walk off the back.

Start same as "Parlier's Sister" but continue past the big notch through slopers to gain the big knob. Press a mantle to attain the higher knob which gives way to the short slab up.

This is a left version to "Smooth Criminal"

 At the sit start you will notice that this is the same long rail you use to sit start smooth criminal, only for smooth, you start on the far right end of the long rail feature.

 Pick up off the far left end of the crimp rail and toss up to the higher crimps. Climb directly up to gain the higher sloper on the lip (match sloper). Pull through tiny features to trend left for a distant small knob.

 "Smooth Criminal" is the line to the right of this that starts at the right end of the rail feature. It climbs direct from that to finish at the high, large "ball knob" to the upper right end of the boulder.

This is a low boulder with some serious overhang. there are only a few problems as of now, but room for a few more short and powerful ones. 

   With a heavy rain season a "wet weather" stream sometimes appears under the far left side of this block.
