My Comments: 5.10a V10???? UHH i'll have to come check this out. 5.10a - V10 sounds pretty far fetched to me. In my experience, your highball boulder problems 5.10a are more around the V4-6 range. unless of course this boulder has different routes on it. 1 being a 5.10a and another route that might be a V10. i understand that the V system can be a bit obligatory sometimes and lean 2 or 3 grades over. if this is true, then it would have beat out "picnic" at elephant rocks.

Just to clarify, 5.10a = v0, maybe v1

the discription says
"bolders ranging from 25 to 60 feet no sport routes yet but will be there soon. "
Probably meaning there is a range of climbing from 5.10a to V10
