This is pretty much a stand start, at the end of the traverse on

North Overhang Traverse

.

Choose two divots to the left of the obvious chalked rail of

North Overhang Traverse

, them throw up a heel, and reach for one of the big pebbles.

Northwestern Overhang (a.k.a. The Sloper Traverse)

Start on the opposing side pulls (same as the

Sloper Traverse

). Traverse on to the sloper rail. Once you are established on the rail, bump up to the flat pebble with your right hand. Then cross or bump up to one of the slopey lumps directly above the pebble.

The flagstaff bouldering guide says to cross

, I found bumping to be a bit easier, but to me, it still felt V6 that way.

Begin as for the sloper traverse, but continue left at the usual exit.  A full description and beta photo can be found in the

flagstaff bouldering guide.

This unique problem is shaded much of the day, is low to the ground, and offers the best landing possible.

Locate the chalked up sloper-rail on the Northwestern side of Road Sign Rock.  When facing the problem, sit start down and right from the rail. Your hands will be on opposing slopey sidepulls. Move up, left, and up again... the problem is obvious.

This is classic Flagstaff V2 / B1.
