9/4/11
I did a bit of badly needed maintenance earlier this week with Daniel. We shoveled the mulch off of a couple problems that prolly haven't been climbed since tamagotchis were around. Here are a few shots...
The above problem is directly across from Swiss Cheese Face V0
This is a low start variation that stays on the right face of the Cheese block.
While these two problems have seen very few recent ascents if any, they're completely worth the visit. While out, we cleaned everything between Sunken boulder and The Font, with exception of the Broke Down Cave. Go check 'em out!

For the top photo, from my notes. ""Stand Up": This line is directly opposite from Swiss Pockets. Start in the hueco with the underclings and work up and right"...That sound like what you did. The picture looks like it but I have it harder then a zero.
The second photo does a much better job describing what Danny Boy was trying to say about a new variation. "Odd Job" is what you guys are calling it, if so I will add it to the notes for that guide section. V3?
Mixed up the order of the photos in my comment. Should be second and third, not first and second.
Yea, what your calling "Stand Up" starts in dual undercling pockets and goes up to the slopey eybrows. Id say it was hard V2. I think Lou was saying that its across from Swiss Cheese, which is V0.
Correct, I meant Swiss Cheese V0. "Stand Up" is for sure a bit harder than V0. "Odd Job" starts low right on a horizontal iron oxide plate, through slopers, then stays right for the topout. The move to get into the pictured gaston, may put it around V3.
