I think I may have done this problem, or something very near it. Isn't this that bouldering area east of San Diego. Not Woodsun, but that other one, can't for some reason remember the name just at the moment... it's been too many years... something like Santie... or dang, my mind must be going, but I think I have a photo of myself on virtually this same place...

Is that Accomazzo, my pal? Almost looks like Higgins, but I don't think he bouldered there...

I think it is Santee Boulders area -- and do you know Carl Accomazzo? I just got back from a trip to JTree that he put together. He is one awesome guy! We had great climbing with fantastic people, doesn't get any better.

Its Rick A.
Moby Dick
On the far North West corner starting from the west side of the boulder. Not true North West perhaps but if you use the long sides as north and south for reference it works.
The last attempt I saw was when the next person to try after Rick broke off the first hold. You would half to two stand about two+ feet taller than Rick to get your hands on the holds.
Then start with no feet. This problem is about twenty feet or more to right of to the dino problem that went to the top about 1980
Any pictures of it being done now.. The area had a number of problems I thought or knew would go some day.

I should have pulled a guide first. The Hubbard – Kennedy guide has no route listed. It’s on the side facing the Amphitheater p. 106. Just around the corner to the right from Jump start where the bottom cuts back..
Enjoy Rich
