Dangle & Whack is the third climb at the wall and consists of steep, hard moves up a broken crack through the roof.  Finish on a slab and build a tree anchor.

HU starts low on the wall on awesome black rock.  Climb the 45 degree overhanging boulder problem straight out under a bolt.  Pull the lip and jump down to your crash pad or keep going to the top of the cliff.  The upper section is very mossy and needs a few wire brushes before I would recommend a lead.  Most people top rope this if they want to feel safe on the upper moves or keep a good belay-er on hand for an interesting lead. 

  LOCATION   This route is located on the left end of the crag and has a single bolt to identify it.

This is a classic traverse found on the left side of Lower Pivot Point.  Start on Daves Toe Jam and climb  right until you reach Pivot Point.

A nice short mainly solid(for Seward Highway) sport route at lower Pivot Point. The business of the route is making powerful left trending moves up underclings/pockets and pinches. The crux starts just as the hands reach the 1st bolt and continue until just below the 3rd bolt.  

  Note: Even though this route appears solid, it is still on the Highway and susceptible to freeze and thaw breakage. As a note the grade became more solid after I pulled a 15 pound (was an undercling pinch) block off just before the 3rd bolt.

Naught For All starts on a couple ledge then climbs into an in cut formation with a great under cling. Clip the first bolt located 18 fee off the deck.  Continue over small roofs with a bolt after the lip.  Finnish the upper bulge off to reach the top of the route.

As far as I know this is still an open project.  It climbs past four bolts on an incredibly overhanging prow to an anchor.

This route located on the right side of Pivot Point starts at Crybaby and traverses right till you get to the beginning of All For Naught.

Trickster climbs up the juggy face holds then cuts right under the overhanging section. Set your feet and use a blocky left hand undercling, move your right hand to a good pinch. Move left up to a crimp, over the lip, on the base of the ramp with the left, set feet high, and make the crux move to the high right hand pinch side-pull above the first bolt. Pull through the steep section into a small corner/dihedral and continue up on crimps and small pinches trending left of the 5.7 crack system, staying in the dihedral. From start to finish, stay just left of the high first bolt, to keep the grade at .12a.

All For Naught is located on the right portion of Pivot Point and starts on the far left side of a small standing ledge.  Grab a jug at chest height and throw a long move to another jug.  Climb slightly overhanging rock up to the first bolt.  Some gear can be used to protect the beginning or the route till the clip.  Climb up and right under steep to overhanging rock to a second bolt then keep trending right at t 45 degree traverse up to the anchor.

Dave's Toe Jam starts with feet on a little flat ramp and hands on a good side pull jug.  Throw for a 2 finger pocket then another jug.  Climb up and left through the lip.  If you want to continue on the mossy upper slab a top rope or some pre scrubbing with a wire brush may be recommended. 

  LOCATION   This is the left most climb at the crag, located to the left of a single bolt.  The first half of the route is nice and steep.

Crybaby starts near the base of a large tree.  Climb up a face with a some what protectable broken cracks and good holds.  Follow this to a dihedral that will bring you straight to a large pine tree used as the route anchor.  Be careful because the better pro is located above the crux moves.

Pull through the steep corner into the the area below a small roof passing two bolts.  Place a small cam or nut here to avoid a groundfall and head out right.  Pull past another bolt to a two bolt anchor.  The crux is just getting off the ground! 

Pivot Point Topo

Grunt Maker climbs to the right side of a white section of wall at Pivot Point.  It climbs long moves to the right trending corner.  Finish on awkward moves under the anchor of Sat Nam (sport route to the right).

Linear Equation is the route 12' right of Pivot Point.  It climbs a thin seam up and right across a short block.  The upper half of the route is dirty. The original tree anchor has fallen down so you may need to bring a lot of rope to use as a directional to keep form taking a bad swing.

Waltzy is the far right climb at Pivot Point.  Start up a small ramp to the right of a bolt.  Grab large jugs and pull on to an aret, then continue to the top of the cliff.

Off Ramp climbs up the left side of the white section of rock at Pivot Point.  Climb the arete then pull a small roof and finish on mossy and some times wet moves on the dihedral to the top.

The lower area of Pivot Point.  Contains a high density of decent climbing and is easy to scramble around and set up top ropes without having to lead anything.  Watch for loose holds!
