Fun sequential climbing on small crimps leads to a distinct crux move at the 3rd clip. Fight the pump and catch a well-deserved rest at the 4th bolt, with mellower climbing to the anchors.  

  I felt that the crux sequence of this climb was as difficult as any of the moves on the neighboring "Family Man", but the route is not quite as sustained.

Thin, technical crimping up to and past the 2nd bolt. Easier climbing from the third bolt to the anchors.  

  Note: I couldn't find any beta on the route name, so if you know what it is, feel free to post up!

Excellent climbing on really cool, water-polished features. Neat laybacks to a thin, well-protected crux at the fourth bolt. 

  Top rope variation (directly under the anchors): The Middle Child, 10a

Bouldery crux pulling the roof at the second bolt to easier climbing above. Maybe the "least-good" of the the climbs on the formation, but still worth doing.

Currently the hardest route in Comales Canyon. Steep line with continuous hard moves to a rest midway then easier climbing above. Climbs steep orange face behind big tree to black arete above.

Fun, sustained face climbing on good pockets and edges. 

  Thin, technical crimping up to and past the 2nd bolt. Easier climbing from the third bolt to the anchors.  

Short and small formation with 6 sport routes and one TR. A large tree provides afternoon shade for Father's Day and Family Man.
