This little crimp problem is located between the two twin planets boulders in the small alcove. It climbs the left side of the alcove. Look for a obvious crimp line that follows up the face. Good warm up and one i always like to try and warm up with.

SDS and move up the right arete of the first block you encounter of the twin planets boulders. Crimps and little seams get you up this steep arete. 

Follows up the non-descriptive arete. Obvious warm up line this is the first problem you encounter when hiking to the twin planets. This is also the easiest problem within this area.  It is on the first block of the two twin planets and the first problem that you come to when taking the path that drops down to these boulders. The path goes directly pass this problem.

This is the furtherest route on the second block of the twin planets. This is also the last route in the Twin Planets area. Goes up the right arete on huge holds to a fun juggy mantle top out. Good warm up for this boulder. 

Start same as ET but move left to the arete via heel-hook and set-up for a bad pinch to gain better holds

Starts low (shares sit-start with Close Encounters) with a left toe hook and work up using a series of crimps and continous left toe hooks on the arete....a little lunge to the sloping jug and you're out.   A great and sometimes frustrating project.

SDS in the center of the block. Look for two tiny chalked crimps. Move up on and balance on crimp holds to the top. Sweet line and a must if you are visiting this area. Originally graded V3 but V4 feels more suitable IMHO. Time will tell. 

The Twin Planets are two beautiful tall boulders. These high quality boulders sit right at the main entrance or some of the first blocks you encounter. Both have great lands and something about sitting at the base of these offers a rare perspective of the Black Hills grasslands and prairie. Many fun warm up problems lie on these boulders and should not be dismissed. This area also boosts ONE of the hardest established boulder problems, " E.T." V9.
