This is the left most route at the crag.  It climbs up a vertical face to the left of the prominent arete. Start up on broken rock and into a dihedral with a number of roofs that vary in size with the largest being about half way up the route. There is a single bolt at the upper cliff to use as a directional below the anchor.  This is a top rope climb and can be reached by walking up and around from the left side of the fetcher.

Shriek of the Mutilated

Jaws of Churd

Howl of the Damned

Climb up and around to reach the anchor of this toprope route then rappel down to the chossie ledge.  Start up the dihedral on loose flakes to gain more solid rock.   Once on the upper slab angle left to the anchor and rappel the route. 

  LOCATION    This is the right most climb at the Crag.

Shriek Of The Mutilated starts up a small dihedral to the first rusty bolt 8' off the ground.  Get on top of a triangle shaped ledge to make the second clip.  Pull up through a small arete and continue past bail tat.  Exit the upper dihedral and cut right six feet to a chain anchor. 

  LOCATION   This route is the first sport climb on the left side of the crag and located on the main wall.

Jaws of Churd is 10' right of the prevues sport climb.  It is a toprope that starts up a corner the pulls a large roof before the anchor.  Get to the anchor from Shriek of the Mutilated or rap in, be very careful of loose rock at the top of the climb and try not to knock any down as it could damage the anchors or people below. 

  LOCATION   This is the TR through the large roof just right of the other sport routes. 

  (Read the comments and look a the pic below.  The upper section of this route along with the anchor are now on the ground!!)

Howl of the Damned starts up a slaby ramp to the vertical, thin face and make the first clip 14' off the ground.  Then climb through a small alcove with a well chocked hold and pull up past a small overhanging fetcher.  Dont fall on the sharp shale flake. Keep moving up a smooth face to the upper dihedral then make another technical move to get on the upper slab and clip the anchor.  Rappel the route. 

  LOCATION   This route is the right of two sport climbs and shares an anchor with Shriek of the Mutilated.

Shriek of the Mutilated is a small wall with hard climbing.  The rock is steep, sharp shale. There are lots of loose blocks on top so it is not recommended to rap in to reach the anchors.
