Really fun and such a gorgeous setting. Start beneath the low roof (start "backwards" with feet out of the roof at the lip) matched in the low deep jug, and feet out at the lip toe-hooking the huge hueco pocket.

 Work hands to your feet and the hueco, and then climb up the rippled face to top out.

Superb riverside roofing to a wowy-wow surprisingly hard but pretty face. Water levels need to be low for this to be possible.

 Follow the low roof-arete to the right from the hueco at the lip for "Silent Majority"

 Find the diagonal pinch at the lip, then 10 inches further a perfectly rounded scoop at the lip. The scoop is the right hand start, and deep under the roof is a deep in-cut jug slot for the starting left.

 Find the left toe hook deep under the roof and pull on. Heel hook the outer lip and fight your way to match the diagonal pinch. Swing out and climb up the face directly above the pinch.

 Pass the side-pull, a crimp, a thumbdercling, and the wonderful features above to top out with ease.

A nice power packed problem.

 On the upstream-most roof end, this is on the shorter left arete. Look under the low roof for the deep big block ledge. Sit start matched at the low end corner of the block and move into higher right jugs, the into the rail/flake under the roof. Blast to the flat sloper at the lip of the corner and top out.

To the right of "Tongue-Tied" on the river side of the boulder, sit start under the lip of the low roof on good holds and a heel hook under the roof to the right. Toss up to the face with flat holds and slopers. Gain the higher right hand side-pull and continue direct to the top out.

 Only climbable during low water levels

Big and bold!

 To the right of "Unspeakable" stand start on the large flat jug shelf. Climb straight up the tall face past a pinch, in-cut slots, a sidepull and thin crimps. Top out at the corner apex.

To the right of "Quiet Place" stand start low compressing a left hand pocket side-pull in the seam, and right hand undercling. Toss up to slopers and finish direct to top out.

 Only climbable during low water levels

Some of the prettiest sandstone around. Bright orange and golden swirls with excellent movement. 

 On the upstream-most steep face look for the large, obvious start jug. Move right to the good edge and then work left toward the giant block ledge. Climb up direct from there.

A fantastic direct line off of the shared start to "Unspeakable"

 Sit start on the same jug as per "unspeakable" but instead of working right, toss far left off of the start to compress the flat roof hold. Bump to match the lip and then the massive shelf at the lip. Top out as per "Unspeakable"

Just past (upstream) from Pirate Ship and Orbit. Silent is a very large boulder with a low roof facing toward Orbit and a long, wrap around steepness on the upstream side. Beautiful orange swirled sandstone.
