Juggy start to crux area midway, thru bulge.

Work some juggy holds through the first bolt, where thin, positive crimps trend leftward into a short traverse. The pump carries directly into the arguably single-move crux of the route. Get your feet right, manage your pump, and its over. The remainder of the route is simply good, technical climbing. Crimps, high-feet, and a couple of lovely jugs.

 I managed to break off two or three holds, and its admittedly still a bit sandy, but the movement is very good! A worthy route that will clean up nicely. Give this thing some love!

Perhaps the finest sport climb in Red Rock. Two bolts of 5.9 jugginess lead to the first of many powerful boulder problems. Enjoy the variety (and the mandetory all points off dyno) and grimace through the crimpers on this beautiful classic!

Summon up focus to climb this long bolted line to the top.  Located climbers right of Toupee and the new, unnamed route, this line requires a 70 meter rope. Locate the base of the route by selecting the left of two lines that have their second bolts above a wide horizontal crack.  Climb past the first bolt, placing a .5 or .75 cam (optional), in the horizontal to reach the second bolt.  Continue up a long seam, trending left.  Spacing between bolts increases with distance from the ground.  Pass through various degrees of quality red sandstone to reach the anchors.

Good slab  Perfect To warm up your brain to go to  your big proj . Heady lead, some (d) are run out but who doesn't live without spice . That's what my friend said to me before i broke my tooth. ;) optional. 75 to start the first move secure. 

This is a pretty cool route with an old school feel.  Not a casual sport route for the 5.9 leader.  The bolts have some space between them and the heady move to gain the scoop at the top is protected by some cams in a small flaring crack.  The cams are probably solid pieces but I'd put 2 in there to be sure.  You can descend by walking off to the right.  Since this is in plain view of the parking lot, expect a crowd of spectators to gather!

This route is more of a mind game than others, due to the height of the first bolt. (This is also why I gave it a PG-13 rating.) Otherwise a fun route, that is long enough to serve as a warm-up for the routes on the opposing wall.

Start beside a tiny right-leaning ramp. Climb beside the ramp to the first bolt and continue up the face to the anchor 

I recently watched some accomplished climbers flailing on this route. It is know as one of the testpieces for Red Rocks... unfortunately I don't climb 13s! =) It is considered a classic line if you are capable of pulling the moves off the drilled pockets.

Three bolts of low 5.10 jugs leads to two bolts of thin, technical crimping on a slightly overhung face. Pull into the lie down rest, then tackle the relaxing headwall to the anchors. An excellent warmup for the insanity that lies deeper in the corridor.

Slabby start to a ledge and a bulge just below the anchor.

Added November 2016 by the industrious Dan McQuade.  Follow about 6 new bolts up the gray slab face just to the right of To Bolt or Toupee.  Climb thin technical face just behind a large bush/small tree to reach the first bolt.  Follow the new bolts up and to the right of the roof of Toupee. Continue past the right side of the roof to gain the lip of the large (8ft scoop). Make balance moves to get to a 3 bolt anchor.  At the time of this writing several holds were fragile and this route may become harder with time.

A closely bolted, enjoyable climb that heads straight up slabby white rock on pitch one, then into rippling red on the second. The view is great all the way up and the rock itself is a pleasure to climb on.  An excellent introduction to multi-pitch climbing for those so inclined.

Located on the near vertical wall about 70 feet from where the corridor ends and opposite, Churning the Dirt.  Look for two lines with their first bolts below a wide horizontal crack.  This is the right/south of the two.  Climb past the first bolt placing a 1 or 2 cam in the horizontal (optional). Continue up thin, technical face on gray and red sandstone to reach the anchors.

Balancey start to first bolt, using back wall may help. Not a super steep route but tricky and technical throughout. This is not the best rock in the park, and the route has not had many ascents-so the thing is still a bit chossy in spots. There is a nice chimney rest at the top just before going for the chains.

Climb up the 4 bolts, and then follow the crack.  At the top of the crack move over the bulge and straight up to the anchor.  Alternatively, traverse right at the top of the crack to a second crack and climb to the anchor from there.

The thin flakes seem to keep breaking, which lead to the rating change from 5.12a to 5.12b. After the publishing of Roxanna Brock's new guide another flake broke on a gaston move, resulting in locals raising the grade another letter to 5.12c. 

  Easy climbing to the first bolt turns difficult quickly as you encounter a thin crimp. Some technical footwork leads you higher (3rd bolt) where you enter the second crux sequence, including a gaston to a small broken flake. IF you can pull through this move the difficulty eases and the anchors await.

Twenty feet to the right of the chimney at the back of the corridor. Climb up the face into a large scoop over runout but easy terrain. Exit to the left side of the scoop to a hard mantle. The anchor is up and left after more runout.

This corridor is in the shade most of the day, until the late afternoon. For being as close to the parking lot as it is, this crag is never crowded. This is likely due to the lack of moderates to be found here. Never-the-less, if it is hot outside, and you are looking for shade, and some difficult routes... this might just be your destination.
