This classic climb is worth the interminable hike to Cambodia. Unlike many of the other less-trafficked climbs in the area, the rock is solid, and the climb is clean.

The climb can be divided into two distinct halves separated by a tenuous crux sequence to clear the shallow roof. The first half is sustained, pumpy climbing with some long reaches between good holds. The second half consists of easier climbing with good rests between ledges, and you finish by scurrying up a fun dihedral before the final anchor ledge.

This is a must-do for any 5.10 NRG face-trad climber.   Either stand on cheater stones to reach the high first jugs, or boulder it out from the right.  Continue straight up on amazing jugs to a no hands rest.  From here, fire up the splitter off-fingers and hand crack before moving right under a roof around the arete.  A legit 5.10 mantel guards the anchors.

This is an amazing route.

The bouldery crux is a long move between crimps before the first bolt. With first bolt pre-clipped, belayer should keep the climber on a tight belay to avoid a crash landing on the boulder below.

The climbing does ease up onto sharp jugs after this. The roof sequence involves a bit of awkward belly-flopping on flat holds, and the climb finishes on a jug-paddle to the anchors.

The climbing is fun, but the rock quality on this climb is highly suspect after the initial boulder start. Expect to kick crumbly flakes of rock onto your belayer and pull carefully on the fragile-looking flakes under the roof. The jugs above the roof are also not entirely solid, and chunks of rock can (and have!) become dislodged without any pulling on the climber's part.

Solid rock with good, long moves. There is one trickier sequence using a long reach to crimps between bolt 3 to 4.

This route is great, on good rock, but is short. The wall stays green in wet weather, but was dry in late September. A little brushing makes this a good warm-up for the area.

Relatively easy climbing up a low dihedral follows four bolts to the crux traverse to a second dihedral up higher. A good warm up for the crag.

A fun little slab climb that is worth doing simply because the holds are just fantastic. The name is also something to tell all your friends about as they will think you did the 5.13 of a similar name at The Other Place.

Work your way up 3 bolts on easy slab, Stand up to a pinch gain the ledge and examine the damage that Tigger has done to the poor Vietnamese leader's rectum.

Climb up easy ledges to a balancey move past the first bolt. Continue straight up past the second bolt using longer reaches, and then a rightward traverse to the third bolt. The crux involves long reaches on good, sharp crimps to a slot. Clip here and move a little right before climbing straight up to the last bolt. The final sequence on sidepull jugs is pure fun.

This is a great route; good moves on cool rock, but it hasn't seen much traffic as of fall 2017. A few smaller flakes or edges may come off over time, detracting somewhat from the climb in its current state.

Rock quality is good.  Start just left of first bolt and enjoy the thought provoking sequence.  Once at first the first bolt, the climbing eases up a bit but is sustained to the chains. In the Williams guidebook and on rackup this route is ungraded.

Start by scrambling up some easy terrain to a ledge and then stick clip the bolt in the middle of the slab. Layback the wide crack until you can pull over onto the slab, then make committing moves going to the second bolt. Now gingerly up and past the terrifying can-opener flake before heading out right toward some hollow-feeling but seemingly solid jugs. Rest up here before tackling the steep, blocky crux above -- long draws may make the difficult clips a bit easier. A little run-out above the crux guards the shuts.

Just like walking in a place where one might encounter a tripwire, this route will surprise you. Start on the featured bottom and pull over the bulge up to a good stance at a crescent incut, from here enter the business that lets up just before the anchors.
