Shark's Tooth

The Cavity (Variation)

Little Inch

Fallout

Boardwalk

The Cave

Slingshot

The crux is probably getting up the "bottomless chimney" (description from Boston Rocks guide). It's a slanted chimney, so it's awkward. 

  This climb is sweet because of the variation. Getting to the chimney is an easy clamber, so you're fresh when you reach it. Then figuring out how to squeeze your way up it is fun. When you pop out the top, you're confronted with a flat surface that has narrow holds which you climb up to the anchor.

This is a lengthy trad route that traverses most of the G Wall (L to R) from Shark's Tooth nearly to the arete (right of Boardwalk). The crux is traversing right from the blocky prow of Shark's Tooth (below that route's bulgy crux) by underclinging a solid crack while smearing feet on the featureless slab. Continue right to join Boardwalk, and follow the flakes/fins trending left to a blocky alcove at the summit.

Little Inch climbs a crack which is about 15 feet left of Boardwalk and goes pretty directly up, angling to the right around a large block about midway. It's a little harder than Boardwalk, since some holds are less obvious and thinner. Another fun climb.

It's a nice fun climb with lots of good holds for feet and hands. There's no noticeable crux. Be careful belaying and tossing your rope down from the top; there's a giant pool of water which comes almost right up to the bottom of this wall. You may want to bring a tarp if you're concerned about your rope getting soggy.

The start is the same as Little Inch on G Wall. When you reach a horizontal crack about one quarter of the way up, break away from Little Inch and angle up to the left. About half way up, you find yourself below a large block, with a small tree rooted above it. Your task is to get yourself past the tree without grabbing it! (I couldn't). This part of the climb is the crux and is a fun challenge. It's an awkward spot, so be careful, you don't want to smash into the blocks around you if you fall. 

  Once above the tree, the route joins up with Little Inch; just follow that to the anchor. 

  This route is listed in the Boston Rocks guide. The description says you should "climb into a cave", but I never saw anything that remotely resembled a cave. I can only guess it has been filled in with dirt and is now occupied by the small tree mentioned above.

Slingshot is harder than Boardwalk and Little Inch because it requires some smearing at points, especially near the bottom. But there are also some ledges an inch or two in width which make the climb relatively easy, higher up.

This is another narrow face that is up to 70 feet tall. It lies just to the right of the G Face. There is an interesting chimney on its left side, Fallout. Some of these lines can be lead. The ring is about 15 feet back from the edge of the face and can be supplemented with a #13 BD wire & Tricam.
