This route, also on the Left Side face, starts about 10' right of "Felix". Make some moves up to the ledge, step left and follow face and a right curving flake/crack, then a few  feet up a vertical crack. Move left to another crack. Follow this and face to the top.

Climb the face between Felix and Little Brown Jug

Face climb seams 5' right of Marmac's Crack to the right end of the ledge.  Move right and follow another thin crack to the top.

Climb the crack with good rock. crux is probably halfway up. leave the crack and scramble up and left on chossy rock. you will go thru a slot, turn right, and reach the top

Climb the patina face (2 bolts) between Tourette's Syndrome and Garfield, finishing up a thin crack (which is the top section of Tourette's) then step left and climb a slab to the top.

This route climbs the leftmost crack on the right formation.  Scramble up some flakes to gain the crack itself which in the beginning is a bit shallow.  Plenty of foot holds gain help one gain the upper crack of the route.

Look for this short cliff on the right as you enter the Cathouse canyon.

Slab with 2 bolts to steeper moves past one more bolt.

Right of Highstep, climb the dogleg crack, and rap off Sidestep

This climbs a crack, just right of the center of the Left Side face. From the right side of the face, walk left on a ramp/ledge to this crack. The crack doesn't quite reach the ledge and another crack runs parallel to it up higher. The rock is good. Follow this crack to a ledge, with a wide crack to the left an a hand crack to the right. Follow the crack on the right to the top.

Rightmost bolted line on the right wall.  Up and over the low roof (crux) to two bolts.  A final piece of gear will see you to the top.  Perhaps the best line on the wall.

Climb fun, short Dihedral Crack left of Highstep, rap off Sidestep

The leftmost bolted line on the "right" wall.  Identified by 4 bolts beginning about a third of the way up the wall.  The opening moves to reach the first bolt are fun, but then the climbing gets contrived as you can basically touch other climbs on either side of you.

On the Left Side Face, climb the start to "Little Brown Jug" to the first ledge. Step to the right to two parallel thin cracks. Follow these and the crack and face above.

This climbs an easy crack on the left side of the Left Side face. Starting off a boulder, make a few moves to a ledge. Continue up the crack to the west shoulder of the cliff. You can end the climb here or continue up easy climbing to the top. If you want anchors on top you will need some 3"-3.5" cams.

Look for this short cliff on the right as you enter the Cathouse canyon.

Same start as Alley Cat, then move right to a bolt and make a delicate traverse (5.8) to the right. Climb straight up past another bolt (5.7) up to a 2 bolt belay/rappel anchor.

One bolt protects opening move, climb up and over roof.  Large gear for anchor, rap off sidestep.

20 feet of steep hueco's 2 bolts than mixed low angled face and crack.

Look for this short cliff on the right as you enter the Cathouse canyon. This is the crack on the left side.

This climbs the blunt arete on the right edge of the face. From a ledge, climb unprotected face to a crack about halfway up. This crack is off route, but  stoppers and small cams can be used to protect about another 10 feet. Continue to the top. One can also top rope or solo the arete without the crack.

This route climbs the actual dihedral crack that is the far right perimeter of Lower Cathouse. Prominent bush at the base. Very chossy rock with some loose blocks halfway up, but the climbing itself is fairly enjoyable with good moves pulling over the chockstone.

The climb ascends a small buttress between the two main Cathouse formations. Either climb a crack up the right center of the buttress or start six feet right on the right edge of the buttress and climb a crack that runs up onto the arête. When the crack ends, climb up and left on the face to the top (PG13).

Start down in the pit to the left of Chicken Pox, go up crack, transition to climb arete/face, and finish same as Chicken Pox

Mantle onto a slab then pull through some manky horizontal cracks. Clip a lone bolt before moving into a finger to thin hands crack for a few moves.

3 bolts and small to medium gear.  At top, climb up and over one boulder, step across to another boulder to rap anchor.

Climbs a right-facing corner down low, passes over a small roof about 1/3 of the way up and finishes with a hand crack.
