Bolted face climbing to thin crack. This route was first climbed in 1968 at 5.7 A1. The first ascentionists placed 13 bolts on lead to get to the upper crack system. Over many days they worked the moves and eventually removed 7 of the bolts as sections went free. It was rebolted in the early 1990's and is now the Ceremonial Rock classic.

Regular Route

Northface 10b

Price's Crack

Northface starts on a prominent left facing flake, traverses slightly left and then follows edges, side pulls, underclings and smears to the top. This route has remained a TR because of current bolting restrictions.

This is the obvious crack system on the right side of the north face. Go straight up the crack to the small roof. Pull through the roof and scamper to the anchor. A 5.8 variation exists by traversing right, then up and around the roof. This was a test piece in its day.
