Start with a side pull for the right hand and a sloper for the left hand; work up to nice holds in the horizontal slot and then up and above to a big flake that turns into a jug.  Some sneaky feet above a boulder in the landing zone can make it feel a lil spicy

Start on the flat rail and climb up the right side of the dihedral crack to top out directly above

Start holding the lower seam, bump to the jug above, then traverse right. Find a way to gain the lip and then use the horn on the boulder on top to top out.

Stand start using the scoops on the face, make a really long move to a good hold at the lip! Perhaps a bit dynamic and morpho, fun nonetheless. Start sitting to add a grade.

Start as for Machine Gun Funk seated on opposing sidepulls, but when you reach the juggy rail climb right into the finish for Buddy Miles

Start seated and matched on the low shelf near the bottom of the crack feature. Climb up and left through the jug rail to top out on the low angle slab to the left.

Start standing on the far left of the boulder, traverse right until you reach Band of Gypsies then top out as for Band of Gypsies

Start sitting with your left hand on an undercling and right hand on a good sidepull. Do a big drop knee to reach a higher sidepull then top out on slopers straight above

Start matched on the lower flake, bump to the jug then climb around the left side to top out

A classic Leavenworth warmup spot! Machine Gun Boulder has several climbs V0-3 and a flat landing, making it a great stopover on the way to your proj or a fun boulder to try if you are newer to climbing. Lesser known climbs up the hill offer additional easy climbing and are just a minute's walk from Machine Gun. 

Parking is 8.7 miles from Icicle Junction, or 0.2 miles past the turnoff to Bridge Creek camping. The boulder is visible on the uphill side of the road.
