Climb the obvious ridge that ascends the boulder. This is a good way to get down as well.

West Face Sit

South Side Variations

East Face Right

East Face Left

Orange Zeus

The south side of the boulder has lots of fun easy variations.

This is left of Grains of Paradise. I used the rock on which Theta is leaning against for feet to start. Begin with your hands on the slab, directly below the v-groove. Keep your hands and feet to the face only, not around the left nor the right (Grains of Paradise).  The crux is getting established on the slab before heading into the v-groove.

 This problem, although silly, is a hoot. Mind blowingly silly, I also did a sit start variation with hands and feet on the added rock. That added a surprising number of moves to the problem and a whole lot more hilarity.

 I had worked the problem without the added rock for hand or feet. Getting established on the slab is pretty hard but will go for sure. Give it a shot.

Stand start with your hands on a good crimpy rail and good feet on the overhang face. Move to the grainy slopers to the right, and continue up the arete.

This is a sit start to Grains of Paradise. Start with your hands on the juggy rail. Move along the arete to a sharp sidepull. Gain the grainy slopers. Continue to the top.

Start with your hands on the obvious jug ,and move into the face via crimps. The crux is pulling onto the face. Top out with solid feet the rest of the way.

Start in about the same place as East Face Left, but trend to the right, and top out at the peak.

Start with good feet and crimps. Trend left, and gain the ridge. Follow the ridge to the top.

Orange Zeus is a one move wonder. Almost a laydown start with your left hand on a rounded sidepull and your right hand on incut sidepull under the roof. Place your feet strategically. Make a big move to the juggy flake, and top out straight up the hump.

This boulder is perched on top of an outcropping. There is a Theta symbol painted on the north face.
