Black Mark – V4 ↓
Description:
This popular problem starts matched on a low rail. Work your way up and right to better holds above
Show Beta
-
averykruger: Bumped left off the pinch. -
adelaidekim: Short beta - left hand tiny pinch, right hand high on the rail, left foot in the high hole, I did a back flag with the right foot to a small corner near the start hold so I could actually push off the right foot for the big move (I went up with the right). It seems very improbable but it helped me reach the last 2 inches. If you are not short, don't use the tiny pinch. -
Lena laitinen: Used the uber high left foot. The left crimp was ouchy, so I crossed left hand up to the edge above instead of reefing on the crimp and going up with the right. -
Tina: High stepped and went left hand to side pull, then bumped to good hold.
-
nathanchow: Cross your left hand statically to the rightside hold before the huge jug. It's way easier than deadpointing with your right hand to the same hold. -
wendy l.: Lock-off was key for my 5'3" stature.
-
Greg Bauch: All about the dead point -
Jeremy Childs: Once you get it you get it
-
Jaces: Cross for the last Move!!
-
nickbruce: Cross into the far right jug

Finally got this after watching Janice with the foot beta. Thanks girls for the stoke and spots. Forgot to get a send cookie :( -
Tension-ey sequence to a big move to latch the jug. Fun! -
Still a little wet today, had to eliminate some holds

Interesting body position I found to get this one
-
Big power classic! -
-
Sequence wasn't obvious, but flowed well when I got it -
Really nice, delicate -
Managed to avoid all the terrible feet.

Used the mini pinch. Glad to have done it on a cooler day. Feels tough for the grade
-
Fun one
-
-
Fantastic ! -
-
-
-
-
Great line! Multiple ways of doing the hard section in the middle
-
More burly than I was expecting
-
Pretty hard but nice climbing. I liked the grips on this one. I think I did it quite reachy with a low foot . Fun! -

Always hated this when I was shorter because it felt impossible - with extra height this problem is significantly easier and a more fun warm up.
-
Very nice
-
Finally felt easy -
Stopped trying it years ago because it was too hard on my finger injury. Feels good to come back now and send it finally, and actually be strong and healthy enough to use the tiny pinch.

An old nemesis from my first season in Squamish; first time back on it in 6 years!
-
Fooled around on this one too much. The holds get slick in the sun -
It's nice to climb on actually holds once in a while in squamish -
-
-
2020-08-17Hit the crimp/jug with the left hand from matched! Way more controlled than using the left crimp or bumping up right. First sent this a while ago, but resent it today. -

Super greasy. Felt so much easier once I figured out the beta.

Pretty wicked climb. A tiny bit of micro beta made it feel 10x easier. Helps to have some good hip flexibility

Was perplexed by it two years ago, found my way this time around. Pleasant holds and a great punchy move near the top.

-
Successful targeted evening mission
-
So surprised this boulder is always busy, it suuuuucks. -
Greasy foot! -
Straightforward climbing up the smooth basalt dyke. Used deadpoint beta.
-
looks easier than it is
-
Climbed this years ago. Might be the first time I've repeated it since. -
I climbed this several years ago (before sendage hehehe) but repeated for the first time today!
-
-
-
-
Was fun working out the correct foot sequence.
-
La sequence et le jeu de pied dans la grosse crack = trop nice -
Greaaaasssssyy. Years of falling off of this thing. -

2015-05-16Really beta intensive for me. Put left hand on the really good little crimp and then heel hook on the side pull. First tried during the summer but could not get it!

I really liked this one despite what people say. Perhaps it's my static beta for the last move makes it a little more attractive.
