Follow fractures on perfect rock to an engaging mantel traverse. Finish out a seam

Nocturnus Colony

Stack of Cards

Rack of Cards

Chuckwalla Cranny

Stack of Cards is a fully bolted face climb and likely the best warm up for the wall. Steep but forgiving features lead up to a fun headwall. Sort of has that O.R.G. feel.

Gingerly make your way up past the bolts (likely a bit dirty and loose) to a stance on a ledge. From here the real (and good) climbing starts. Intriguing movement up a steep corner takes you to a stance over a lip, continue up engaging and kind of weird moves to a steep finish.  

  This is a LONG pitch. 70m rope just barley makes it to the ground if you swing into the base of the wall. KNOT THEN END of your rope! 

  It's also easy to fully top this one out if its you last route for the day.

Follow a seam up the face to a cool stemming/layback secting. Then dive into the flare and out the steep finish.

East wall of the canyon. AM shade PM sun.
