The problem is on the left hand wall as you enter the cave. Sit start on the fin, with feet down in the hole and hands on the rail. Move up and right to a vertical rail. Then move up and left to a crimp out on the slab face. From the crimp, deadpoint to pinch on the massive detached shelf (it's not going anywhere). Slab on up. With the exception of the hard to pad start and the crumbly starting rail, there's great rock and movement on this one.

Crouch start low on a fin. Make a stretchy move up to a shelf. Dyno up and right to the square cut lip. Traverse left a few hand moves and pull over. The location and exposure of this problem make it both striking and thrilling. The rock is perfect and you can't cheat the dyno with intermediates.

Sit start at the two obvious pockets. Move up to a varnished horizontal-ish finger sized crack and an eventual mantle. Lots of action for such short problem.

Sit start on a flat rail just right of Driftwood's start. Move up and right to another rail and a shelf, until it makes sense to move up and left to be born out of the cave.

Begin standing with sloping feet and both hands on a square undercling at stomach/chest height. Initially move up and slightly left through crimps and slopers. Then pretty much straight up until you reach the slab arete which you ride to the top. The crux is fairly low.

A remote feeling bouldering area that overlooks the beautiful boundary where sandstone meets limestone, and with Turtlehead Peak wholly visible to the north. The problems climb features in and around an interesting cave, formed by a jumble of big blocks. The rock is mainly excellent.
