Stem across to the 1st bolt and then climb over instant exposure existing due to Hercules' Cave. From here fight the pump clock as you crank past sustained moves on the long steep face. Some funky clips, but well protected. The best route on Mt. Olympus.

Steep and pumpy, this is a great introduction to the harder routes on this aspect of the tower. Climb up the gently overhung wall on sustained 5.10 moves until the angle lessens before the anchors.

Begin climbing diagonally slightly right to left up to and over the crux bulge, before tackling the steep cobbles above. Very popular.

Begin climbing the line of large cobbles slightly right of the center of the face. The route looks harder than it is as the route contains many juggy holds.

Climb up the right prow. A bouldery start on a steep face leads to easier climbing and a final bulge made easier by hidden jugs.

Stem up the groove in the steep face, on large cobbles. Climb past three bolts followed by steep moves on big cobbles.

Climb a juggy face up to and over a flake bulge before stepping right and continuing up the vertical face above. Interesting, fun climbing.

Begin twenty feet down the gully from "Hercules," on the downhill side of the cave. Climb up to and then pass the cave on its right side. Continue up the steep face above the cave, moving left to the anchors.

Begin slightly downhill and left of the approach. Climb a juggy face left, following the ramp. Continue up the knobby face to the summit.

Climb straight up to a big cobble before moving to the right and over a small bulge. Continue up the vertical headwall to the anchors. This climb should clean up with more ascents.
