Thats the flake on Moonraker, but Moonraker traverses to the right and finishes on shelter. Going the other way like in the photo you would have to finish on the Buttermilker. New Variation?

I think most people just refer to it as doing the Moonraker the other way, and gets the same grade. But I didn't send Moonraker last time, so didn't even get to try the reverse.

Thats the route and guy from the new Madrock '06 magazine. I have no idea what route it is, I just felt like mentioning that.

Too bad, I thought this was going to be one of those "game" posts in which the OP continually posts pics of probs and we name them.

Weird that Madrock would use that pic in their catalog - looks like he's wearing 5.10's.

no ifs ands or buts... no maybes or i dunnos...

the problem is "The Already Forgotten Traverse" or more simply "Already Forgotten" indeed it essentially climbs the line of "Moonraker" in the opposite direction and finishes up the very top of "The Buttermilker."
