Layback

Lightning Bolt

Face in the Woods

Your Future

No Golden Showers

Crack in the Woods

Frogs Hang Dog Too

Simian's Reach

The obvious zig-zagging crack on the right end of the formation. A decent beginner lead or warm up solo.

Climbs the narrow face in between Crack in the Woods and Lightning Bolt. One may place gear in either crack or in horizontals on the face. Not recommended due to crappy rock quality up high.***Sadly, this route is no longer standing. It fell down in the November 2018 earthquake***

Your Future follows the bolt line just right of the arete.  Start up a small ramp and mount the vertical face by pulling past a hip height cave like features.  Work your way the the first bolt located 14' off the ground. Then you can traverse right on a ledge and fight up a last steep crux section or pull the arete all the way on through to the anchor. 

  LOCATION 

  Your Future is located 15 left of the large tree on the left side of the crag.  It is also the left most sport route at Lower Crack In The Woods.

No Golden Showers starts from two underclings on slaby feet.  The first bolt 10' off the ground above a bad landing zone so try and not blow the starting moves.  Then head to a second bolt 45 degrees up and left past a horizontal crack.  Climb up an arete over the top of the cliff to an anchor shared with Crack In The Woods. 

  LOCATION   This climb is located in between a large tree on left and Crack In The Woods on Right.

A nice hand crack that widens at the top with an awkward face start/traverse from the right. One may start more directly, utilizing holds near the first bolt on Frogs Can Hang Dog Too 5.11+, albeit at a more difficult grade.*** Sadly, this route is no longer standing. It fell in the Nov 2018 earthquake***

Frogs Hang Dog Too starts 4' left of Crack In The Woods and ascends up a thin crack.  Continue to climb  nearly to the top of the cliff before cutting right and clipping into the anchor for Crack In The Woods.  Use slings to cut down on rope drag at the anchor.

Simian's Reach starts on a small boulder that gets you on to a right trending ramp.  Hug the dihedral then climb up the pillar feature to reach a ledge 25' up the wall.  Continue straight up past a tinny roof near the top of the route ten feet right of the bolt line. 

  LOCATION 

  This route starts just left of a large tree and stays ten to fifteen feet right of the bolted climb Your Future.
