Bonsai Rock on Tahoe's east shore. Traverse starts just out of pic to right then gets way above my grade when you have to move up just to my left. Most of the traverse to the right of the arete is always underwater, and at least my ass should be in the water.
Here it is zoomed out some

Sorry for the format, but this video's kind of fun because of the Batman move Santi does to get the flash (when he messes up the last move he drops back down in the air to catch the jug below and then gets it right the second time up). This was the easier of the boulders (maybe V6 or V7) in the exhibition part of last weekend's feste and just about everybody flashed it! The kids sure are getting strong

Gumby - Wow!! Talk about a breathtaking bouldering spot.
Yanqui = love the crowd vibe and stoke in that clip.
Biotch - thanks dude! Honestly, Morpheus is only hard hoisting your ass out of the dirt, then it's a cruise. Brilliant problem...

Bouldering takeover!!
Here's an edit from a sesh this summer. I went and gave my friend Jack a spot on a line he had been creeping on for 15 years and finally got psyched enough to clean it up and go for it. I was shitting my pants while spotting but fortunately the breeze kicked up when he got to the very high crux and he cruised it. Can't see this one getting many repeats but it's a beauty of a line.

RyanD-
Great video of your friend. I love suave, techy granite moves but damn that's high.
Not sure what the landing's like, not that it even matters....
I went out with some crushers yesterday, mostly to take photos and check out the area.
Here's a mini tr in photos:
The walk
Big blocks, big cactus
Warmup V2
Visiting climber on a V12
Third ascent
The line we came to do
Setting up for the huge crux bump on the first ascent. V7
Second ascent
Grom first ascent V3
Mad dogging the far away hold on a project
Always fun to be around when cool sh¡t goes down. Super motivating.
Boulderers here a generally highly motivated, as almost all of the bouldering involves long approaches, with weather and flora/fauna often working against them.
This particular area has a distant history of, of course, Bob Murray exploration, and has many modern hard and high problems on very good rock. Winter only.

That V double digit send was sick.
Those holds are so small and sh¡tty to hold on to, much less crank on...and at that angle.
The dude definitely cored up for that one. Probably only eight tries or so. Plus he was super cool- older and been climbing a long time. We were way older than everyone else. Plus he's a fiveTen guy :-O
The line we went to do was so good. The guys had been the day before to suss it. Both sent second try.
That area is very cool, with plenty of new stuff to do.

Jefe,
Sounds like a quality sesh!!
The line you were trying looks particularly choice. The cactus are a nice touch too.
Stoked you've been getting out on the blocs!
I posted this pic before somewhere but it's the landing from the problem in the vid linked above. We don't mind stacking em up when it's needed :-D

Good stuff you guys!!
That video is a trip. The friggin' dog looks photoshopped because it stands rock still for the first minute, and most of the vid. Funny.

Might as well keep bombing this page.
I hadn't been back to Oak Flats since a Phoenix Bouldering Contest in 97 or so.
Those were fun and foggy times...
and wandering down into the canyons and corridors brought back all kines of memories.
Perfect late Jan temps, good problems, free camping, best friends, dogs, edibles-
bouldering AZ style. Derel style
