A puzzle to piece together. Sit start the vertical arete and move up with vast amounts of tension and awkward facing holds until you can reach the lip of the boulder, and then figure out how to topout. A fun arete that is often overlooked by many.

The Dirty Job

Start by using a couple horrible pistol grips / pinches and some feet scummed under the roof then perform a very powerful deadpoint. Final moves must be campused. (hint - throw your feet really high to start - seriously). Rumor has it that some footholds have broken and upped the grade to V8/9 or something but I remember my feet being crap anyways so not sure if that changes the problem or not. 

A low roof boulder with an old school traverse and mantle problem, and the hard Dirty Job.
