Climb the right side of the arete. Crux is up high, pulling into the dihedral.

Eliminate. Stand-start using choice of edges, and climb the face directly, to the sloper shelf and dihedral, without use of either arete.
-
Start up the left side of "Hulkamaniac". At mid-height, reach left to large, sloping shelf. A technical and tenuous crux here gains a large, flat jug in the dihedral. Continue up dihedral to top out. FA did not use arete to the left - although it isn't really within reach, or useful, until you're through the crux.

One of Frank Slides absolute world-class gems! Stand-start at the base of the arete, and go more-or-less straight up to the peak of the boulder using good edges and pinches, interesting foot sequences, and engaging body positions and movement. Beware: this problem is tall, with a last move crux over a typical Frank landing. A must-do problem for those confident at the grade!
