One of the most enjoyable routes at the Trestles. Relatively easy climbing up relatively clean holds. Though there's a hangar missing where the third bolt should be, the runout isn't that scary because you're on good holds. It's pretty consistent 10a with no definitive crux that I noticed. Just stay to the right of the bolts and enjoy the climbing to the top!

Euphoria

Climb up the right side of the bolt line that is shared with Euphoria.

This is actually pretty difficult. Head up the left side of the bolt line and feel free to use the arete because it's hard enough. Keep your body on the same side as the bolts though. I didn't see any other way to do it than making use of a mortar pinch and a mono undercling in the crux, which is before the second bolt. If you don't like falling above the first bolt, you may enjoy it more if you just top-rope it after leading Ice Dreams, which is a better climb. Plus, the run-out between the 2nd and 3rd bolt would be more tolerable on Ice Dreams.

The hardest portion of this climb is between the 2nd and 3rd bolt. Still not too bad though. pretty good ledges for hands and feet.

Start up the rightmost bolt line. I tended to stay to the left of the bolts but trended slightly right around the fourth bolt, and continued to the fifth bolt (leftward) and then to the cold shuts. I felt like the crux was in the lower half. The climbing is actually pretty interesting, making use of a couple side pulls and you even get some genuine jugs in the rock, instead of just in the cracks.  

  I couldn't find a name for this route anywhere else so I named it Third Eye on my drawing. Afterwards, my friend told me it used to be called Snake Hole. I don't see what difference it makes, but if the first ascentionist wants me to change it back, I will. The reason I don't just do it is because the drawing on the main page has Third Eye and I don't want to redo it.

Climb to the left of the bolted line on the left. The arete is off to make it 5.9, on to make it 5.7ish. Don't worry about the runout between the 2nd and 3rd bolts. People have lobbed from the 3rd bolt (unclipped) and never touched the ground.

This is where most of the action takes place. This trestle sees the most ascents largely because it's taller than the first trestle and is more easily accessed than the third trestle. It has about 11 routes on it, which means that some share bolts and anchors. See the overview for the layout of the climbs.
