A vertically oriented, dark-brown woodblock carving depicts a muscular man climbing a jagged cliff face. Facing toward our right, he reaches his arms upward and steps onto a rocky ledge with his right leg. Fine, parallel grooves define his powerful physique and the stone's texture. To our left, horizontal lines suggest a distant sky. Short, wavy hair tops his head, and a single vertical line marks the block's left edge.
