Start on undercling pod and make a hard move up to a good hold and finish as Crown of Thorns. An awkward sit can be done to add a grade. Starting sitting on the jug and climbing low and right to the arete is New Horizons (v9 ☆☆).

Approach notes
Hike the High Knob Trail along the old access road for 12 minutes (980 yards) passing 13 distinct drainages crossing the road. At the 13th drainage hike directly left (uphill)over the bank and up, up, up to join an old logging trail. Continue trudging for 12 minutes (530 yards) along the old trail to arrive at Trailside Boulder A. Rest legs, harass stragglers, and rejoice.
