Description

Ultra classic Horse Flats boulder featuring The Peanut problem and Nothing but Sunshine (FA: Rob Mulligan).

If your walking on the main trail from the campground you should see Bow Sprits and The Peanut down and left. Y-Crack should be on your right.

If you walk to Peanut and keep going down a dry creek you'll get to Scrub Jay.

Daddy Long Legs

Which climb is Daddy Long Legs? What is up with the two problems to the right of The Peanut? In the 1999 Rock and Ice Guide by James March has the problem next to the Peanut as "106. Untitled (V4) Lieback edges." and the problem to the right of that one as "105. Daddy Longlegs (V4) Long toe hook to right exit." Neither of these descriptions have been very satisfying. For what it is worth the problem right of the Peanut has two hand holds that are at the same heigt as one another and the left hold is better. Start on those for a nice full value, feels harder than V4, more like V5+. From these hands I've seen many different betas to get up. The problem to the right of this, Daddy Longlegs is even more cryptic. Many options exist for something V3/2/1 to get on top of the boulder. But anything lower seems harder than V4/5/6. So it's hard to say what is going on.
