Buckets of Blood




Name: Buckets of Blood
Grade: V9/10
Area: Carderock

Opened By: GP Salvo
Repeats: Gabor Szekely, Andrea Szekely, James O'Connor, Philip London, Vijay Kannan, Matt Bosley

Beta: The left arete is off until the top of the boulder. Start with your left hand on a slightly incut sidepull crimp just to the right of the arete and your right hand on a very bad thin slopey crimp. Stab up left hand to a better crimp and continue up the line of crimps, sooner or later exiting onto the highball slab.

"One of my favorite boulder problems anywhere. Tall, commiting, crimpy and beautiful at the right time" - James
"The best quality rock in MD, no contest" - Vijay
"Would be three stars if it wasnt such a huge eliminate. Still fun though - crimpy!"
