This is to the right of "Rhyo Light" and down onto the grassy base to the right of the big block base where all the lines including "Rhyo Light start upon. 

  Start right of the base at the easy slab base below the small bulge roof. 

  Climb up the slab to gain purchase of the blocked bulge. Reach direct up and over the bulge over the small roof and grab the beefy jug over the lip. Overcome and scale up the easy last portion to the scramble up top.

so fun:   This line is perfect for an easy, confident highball line that anyone can enjoy. 

  Find "Pedestal" and this one is to the right of that line.   Slab up to the start of a massive, deeply grooved seam. follow the groove up into more massive, confident, fun jugs that lead you up to the top.

Start very low (The sit start adds a grade) at the jug break to the right of "Rift" and before and to the left of the next long crack/seam on the wall (from the arête to the far left where you find "lava flow" this is to the left of the second long crack/seam). 

  Follow the nice holds up into the diagonal jug rail line. Trend either direct or left into the finish of "Rift" for a fun and easy top out. 

To the right of "Base To Bulge" is about 40ft worth of quality bouldering that ranges from v-0 to maybe v-4... The lines are relatively vague and ambiguous with multiple variations, all worthwhile, but I will leave it open to interpretation. The rock is more than quality and the landings are great. Its a perfect place to have fun and spend time. Enjoy!

Awesome and easy: 

  This one is (from the furthest left arête) to the right of the second deep groove/crack/seam. Look for the high flat pedestal jug portion to walk up onto to begin the stand start. 

  Once standing on the pedestal portion, begin the climb with the starting shallow jug seam. Climb up roughly 20+ feet to the top through awesome holds. 

This is an awesome easy line. 

  If you find the arête line that is "Lava Flow Arête", walk right and locate the massive crack/seam that runs deeply top to bottom. To the right of this is this line. 

  Stand start low and work a direct route up through easy-going jugs to the easy scramble up top. 

If coming from Horizon, and if you veered left before Sunset this is the last problem on the wall/boulder. Walk along the wall and the final line on the arete will be "Lava Flow". 

  Stand start and get high feet. Scale the arete through a small left hand hold. Higher there are nicer jugs to finish out on.

You have to check this one out. 

  The rock in the Highlands was formed a rift that allowed volcanic magma to surge upward. As the massive mountains that once were the Appalachian chain eroded, this harder rock remained protruding from the earth... and now we get to climb on it. 

  These rocks are light grey and weathered. The stone is super skin friendly, so after a day or two of pulling on the aggressive stone lower in forest areas in GHSP this is very welcomed.  

  Expect slopey dishes, jugs, and massive rounded pockets here. Most lines on LAVA are tall to medium in height and from V0-v3...
