Lower Noir, Part II

Directly across from the Noir Boulder is a small boulder in the river with two problems not listed in Ocean's Eleven:


Hard - SDS on jug, move to series of small pockets and a seam
Easy - slab to the right of the seam, jump start from adjacent boulder is easier then a direct start

There is a Vo to the left of the seam, listed in Ocean's Eleven.

100ft down the creek is low angle wall:
