Climbs a nice crack/flake on gear to a small stance and then continues up past a strenuous mantle and fingery edges to anchors on the left side of a large ledge.

The anchors are on a ledge and due to the position there's some rope drag - perhaps best to rap off as opposed to lowering to spare your cord.

Climb cracks and small features on the face to a crux leaving the arching crack, maneuvering past small holds to the upper horizontal. After clipping the last bolt a few more nice face moves take you up and over the top to the anchor.

Due to the sharp edge of the anchor ledge, you might want to top-belay and move over to the anchor for

to rappel (to the left of Wild Kingdom when looking at the rock).

The crux is the first 10 feet off the ground. Follow a left slanting crack then right onto an oddly featured face.  A low angled slab leads to the "gorilla's head". Use caution until you stand on top of the head and reach across to clip the last bolt. A fall on this part could cause decking on the low angle slab.

Anchor placement makes cleaning awkward.

The first bolt is there to keep you from tumbling to the rocks below, not so much as to protect against decking.

A couple nice .10a moves get you to a great stance for the second clip. A few more thin moves bring you to the crux passing the third bolt. This is a great move that requires great finger and core strength. Bigger holds take you to the final jugs (on a big mushroom cap) and the anchor.

To avoid rope wear, top-belay and rappel to descend.

and then continue up the faint arete with balancy and technical movement, cutting right at the top to the anchors.

A short section of thin edges past two bolts is the crux and gains a slanting ledge system above which easier face moves past two more bolts lead to the top.

The anchors are on a ledge and due to the position there's some rope drag - perhaps best to rap off as opposed to lowering to spare your cord.
