Start with one hand in the crack and then one hand on an undercling to your right. Work your way up the crack for a few moves until you reach a good right hand. When the crack starts going off right, go left. There is a good ledge to hold onto to make your way across to a bulge. Reach around the bulge, and there are two sidepulls. This is the crux. Balance and move left to a good pinch, and then go up to the top of the boulder where there is a great jug.

The crux is going from the end of the route

La Coca

up above the overhang. This has big, blind moves and requires precise feet. Some holds higher up sound hollow when hitting them, so don't trust one hold too much! It is still a great route, though.

The crux is the topout. Start on the south side of the boulder really low, and throw a right hand out to the crack on the arete. Heel hook and then go left hand to a sidepull on the south side. Balance and move your left hand into an undercling in the crack. Make a big reach with your right hand to a good sidepull, and then get your left hand to a ledge. From there, move your right hand to another ledge, and then it gets tricky. I heel hooked up high and moved my right hand to match my left. Then it's a lot of pulling and scraping yourself up the rock.

Start with a left hand in the "

Lightning Crack

" and a right hand in a shallow sidepull. Dyno up and to the right to a huge jug.

This has no real crux, and there are good handholds around the crack.

Start far left on a jug, and traverse under the "nose" to the other side.

Start low on two sidepulls. Work your way up higher to two more sidepulls and then into a sidepull, triangle sloper. Layback on it, and go to a right hand jug and then up to a huge jug. The topout is hard, it's pretty blank.

Yes, this is a variation, but it is a very fun variation.

Sit start on the start holds for

. Work up to reach the crimp in the middle of the face and a sidepull at the base of the large flake. Make a large span left to

. From here, continue to bump the left hand up the crack and the right hand up the flake till you reach and match the jug at the top of the

flake. Top out to the left via

.

If anyone has information on this route, let me know as I'm sure the very obvious variation has been completed before.

This is the obvious, arching crack on the south face of the boulder. Start by stepping off a small boulder onto low angled terrain. Follow jugs to the base of the steeper, curving crack. The crux is getting established into the hand crack. This crack begins thinner and widens into perfect hand jams at the apex.

This is a very aesthetic route, but be wary of the landing.

Likewise, I know this has been climbed before, so any addition of history and FA would be much appreciated!
