This route starts with a boulder problem right off the bat, then traverses left in the wider of the two cracks. After a few feet, the route merges with Titanic.

Banana Show

Great climb up the finger cracks of the Nugget Boulder. Accepts small- medium protection quite easily.  

  This route is probably the best way to access the top of the Nugget Boulder. Once on top of the Nugget, string a toprope on Banana Show (5.11c TR only).

Mary Poppins climbs the Nugget's prominent chimney. Start inside, clip a bolt, then work your way onto the face near the second bolt. Slightly runout, but very secure for a 5.7 chimney.

This route climbs the slab just to the right of the chimney. The first and only bolt isn't in great shape, and won't protect the leader from a ground fall for most of the route. The small quartz edges make this moderate slab quite enjoyable. 

  It makes the most sense to either climb the route as a highball, or toprope.

Toprope only. Climb this! A balancy slab leads to a shallow corner. At the top of the corner, start moving toward the arete to maintain the suggested rating. My favorite route at the Nugget. 

  Does anyone know who the FA is?

The Nugget Boulder is a 30 foot tall chunk of granite that has five good routes on it. The rock quality is excellent here.  

  The rock gets afternoon sun, as most of the routes are west facing. This is a great place to warm up, or a good place to take budding climbers.  

  There are (two,three?) bolted anchors on top, each equipped with rap rings. A "walk-off" is possible, although the jump may convince most parties to rappel.
