Start on the corner at the base of the grassy slope. Climb up until you can get a hand on top of the roof edge. It will likely be kind of slick with dust, so bump your feet up, and make sure you can grip around the back of the roof railing before trying to go over it. From here, go west to the cooling tower, and climb either the east face dihedral or the south face chimney.

The descent is a downclimb of the way you came up or slightly to the left of where you came up where the hill meets the building higher up.

Pick one of the obvious cracks on the east side of the building, and either lean back or foot jam your way up.

Smoke Signals is an awesome, easy climb on nice holds. Stay low and walk to the furthest east greenhouse for a beautiful smoke spot. We'll try and reply if you send messages via smoke signals.

Climb pinchy sandstone all the way up. Be careful getting onto the ledge.

Have you ever been on the wall and went for a pinch only to just slide off? If this is the case, you should probably hop on the mirrors edge traverse. It starts on the right side by the door and traverses a very visually pleasing line. Stay on the metal edge, and use the pinches get to the other door. Once you find the sequence, it's all just a pumpfest to the end.

Wagar Columns has straightforward climbing in a neat position on the Oval. The roof is a little tricky to pull but manageable.

Take the bricks on either side of the East entrance to Eddy Hall Building up to a large ledge over the entrance, and run the ledge (which is in full view of everyone) to the other side and downclimb.

Per

Gavin E

: this building was remodeled, and the problem no longer exists.

Use the bulletin board, light conduit, and ledge in this tough mantle problem. Set up a pad on the stairs, and have spotters ready. For the downclimb, lay on your stomach, drop your legs, and wiggle until slowly dropping to a hang.

Climb up the back end by grabbing the horse's back leg and doing a "beached whale" move. Continue up and around the front of the horse being careful not to grab the lasso or less solid parts of the sculpture. Drop off the "snow" once you have returned to the back of the horse.

The route consists mostly of arêtes and pretty solid monos. It starts on the left corner, and from there, you traverse across the wall (try not to use the windowsills but climb across it). Once you hit the corner with the wall that has the door, you mantel to the corner to rest, continue traversing over the door, and repeat with the next corner and wall.

Note: campus security doesn't give a crap what you do as long as you have pads.

Start on the arete. Go up on crimpy rails before traversing right below the sign letters. THE LETTERS DO NOT HOLD WEIGHT. Use the concrete ledge as a hand to bridge up to the next rail, and top out on the very top of the sign.

Fort Squidward is a series of climbs between ledges that traverse counter-clockwise around the tower on the North side of Durrell. There's a neat little fort on top and a ladder to the SE.

This is a lovely route featuring the circular holds on one side of the dihedral and typical ledges for your right hand. Enjoy the view!

Follow the dihedral along the stained glass. Mind the lights behind you.

Start on the sandstone wall, climb up about 10 feet, traverse over to the white wall using the indented squares as holds. Climb to the top of the wall, traverse over, and downclimb.

Start on the first ledge below the windowsill, and use monos and arêtes to pull yourself to the next ledge. The windowsill is the finish, and topping out is optional.

Ring the motherfucker and dip. Watch for cops. Swing the thing hard.

Traverse wide gaps between the three stacks.

Ascend easy ledges up to a nice sittin' ledge. You get a bonus point for getting a Bird scooter up there.

Hartshorn Direct has straightforward climbing on mega-jugs. I hope to include the windrow traverse.

Climb sandstone pinches on bottom half followed by mono-pocket crux and the top half with more sandstone pinches. Fuck Kaye!

Start using the door frame as sidepull and the handicap button as a high foot. Send up to twisty, exposed tiles. Traverse to the corner, climb to the window, traverse across, and end at the top of the first column (or second if desired). Downclimb the column.

This is on the boulder on campus outside of the Gym. Try traversing around the whole boulder.
