Boulder problems

A 14m "highball" boulder problem. Considered to be around 7C+ as a boulder problem or 8a+/b as a sport grade.

A lot of history associated with this climb. From Kevin Jorgeson's blog

It is a well known fact that the Buttermilks of Bishop, CA are known for their highballs. It only takes one visit, or one glance at a photograph, to realize how big the granite boulders are and how unique the geology is. However, had it not been for the events of the mid to late 1980's, and a climb called Transporter Room, the Buttermilks may be known for the country's shortest sport climbs instead.

First put up by Helmut Kiene on toprope in the late 70s. FA Dale Bard, late 70s. Bard put five bolts in the face so that his girlfriend at the time, Bobbi Bensman, could lead it. Tommy Herbert came and chopped the bolts a few days later. Because of this, Tom decided against putting bolts in his neighbouring toprope project, Ambrosia (8A), and so Bishop became the highball capital of the US it is known as today.

Nemo, UKB:

As for the name – it doesn’t have anything to do with different sequences. Andy Swann and Christian Durkin both climbed this around the same time in 1995 – Andy called it Waite, Christian called it Welsh Rarebit. But as it turns out, Matt Birch climbed it way back in 1990 but hadn’t named it. So take your pick for the name really although I think most now call it Waite.
