here is picture we took of it while in Rumney.
the landing at the start was decent if you hit the block and kind of got worse as you got higher. i think it is a proud send to be climbing at that level no matter what.

this reminds me of the age old argument why place bolts when you can place gear? if you see something bolted, but you think it should be a boulder problem ignore the bolts. everyone has their own style and ethics to follow accordingly.

You also cant expect that every climb be safe for everyone. Its becoming to pc. If someone wants to establish a bold boulder problem or route then leave it be in that state. If someone wants to bolt a route where natural gear cant be placed and someone wants to ignore the bolts, have at it.

crazy game of poker is pretty short... but no ledge on it... if u were to free solo it would u just carry a rope with you and then repel down?.. not big into free soloing so just wondering... first clip on that is pretty high anyhow and the rest is easy so that is deffinately "do able (without dieing if u fall lol) i think its 40 or 45 feet

And it's been soloed, hasn't it? Yep, counts as a highball in my book.
