Climb the arete right of swamp thingie from a stand start

Panda Arete

The Psychadelic Swamp

Swamp Thingie

Scary Spice

Do the crux of swamp thingie, but then move right through slopers and finish on panda arete.

Start matched on the 7 inch rail with a good low foot. pull a big throw to the sloper, match the sloper, slap left for the higher slimper, come in to the corner with your right hand, pull one more move to the last rail and drop off. You are able to top the boulder out, but it is a very painful scraping mantle to a 20 foot slab which is terrible, so I like to drop off the highest rail before the slab. This is a pure power line, requiring a lot of core tension and some heinous crimping for the start. If you are looking for a burly power fest on Mt. lemmon, this is it.

The obvious line of crystal outcrops up the center of the southwest face. Link the crystals with technical face moves to a committing finish.

This impressive block is home to a few noteworthy problems including Scary Spice, a highball line of perfect crystals on the west face, and Swamp Thingie (V9), which was one of the hardest problems in Tucson for many years.
