Starts in a hole next to the warm up boulder. Pull off the block in the hole out to a good jug. Match then bump your way up on good holds. Heel hook out left and slap into the side pull on the face. Mantle and walk off right. Top of the boulder is very mossy.

Another V3

The Good V3 (Left Side, Strong Side)

The Good Warm Up (Shark Fin)

Balancey arete that is more next to "The Good" than "Next to the Good". There are several ways to start this problem, I recommend starting on a thin right hand crimp near head height at the center of the boulder and a lower left hand side pull. From here traverse left onto the arete and continue to the top of the boulder. It's possible to skip an otherwise spicy top out by stepping left into a mini gully thing, you gotta stay on the rock for full value though.

Have yet to see anyone post this problem on here, even after almost 3 years of climbing at the gardens, so here I am. Apparently the original name is "The Good V3", but I have always called it "Left side, Strong side", and I've introduced it to other people as that, so I'll just put both in the title for the sake of hopefully eliminating any confusion. Don't know who got the FA, so if they, or anyone else knows, feel free to comment it below. That being said, this is a solid climb at the gardens. Starts on a right facing flake and goes up to crimps and slopers. Different betas for the last reachy move, either keep bumping left hand or use some right heel scum action and/or some intermediate slopers to get there.

Sit start. Pop from the jug to the arete and slide up left. Smooth.

Two boulders sit with their landings practically in the main trail.
