I’ll tell you what’s cool’s feistier younger brother

Pitch 1: 5.8 with a V4 Boulder problem in the first 15 feet.  5 bolts.

Pitch 2: 5.8, 5 bolts.

Pitch 3: 5.8, 6 bolts.

Pitch 4: 5.10- with a well protected crux after the fourth bolt.  6 bolts.

Very doable for anyone who can climb 5.10 or even 5.9 in the area

With a 70m rope we rappelled from the 4th to 3rd anchor and were able to barely rappel to the ground from there

Riptide

Scramble up the broken corner to the ledge, a piece of gear may ease tensions here.  Traverse left a bit to gain the corner and begin your way up.  Good gear and fun climbing involving a bit of stemming.

Work through the boulder problem at the second bolt which may be .12a on its own.  Chug up the vert face on better holds to reach the arete.  Follow this up and around to the right onto the slab to finish.  This one will wake you up at the end!  Established on St. Pattys Day.

Wander up discontinuous cracks to the steeper roof section.  Pull through and continue up the slabby section to the chains.

Going through the small roof section at the bottom is the crux, but well protected by bolts.  The route eases significantly by the time the gear starts going in.  A fun climb on good stone.

Initially the climbing is pretty easy, though you may want to place a piece before the first bolt at 20' up.  Getting through the roof is a little bit tricky but well protected by bolts.  The crux is likely the 40' of crack climbing and gear placing above.  The last third is cruiser though gear is sparse with one bolt toward the end.

Scramble up into the scoop on the corner under the roof with the crack.  There is a blocky feature on the wall in the back that serves as an undercling handhold and gear placement.  Make a long reach out to the lip of the roof to find the thank god jug.  From here you can try and place gear above or below or just execute the handful of thuggy moves required to surmount the lip and stand up.  Good finger sized gear awaits the rest of the route, which is significantly easier.

Begin on the steep prow and climb up under the roof and into the wide cleft.  A little 3-dimensional problem solving leads into the steep V-groove and the crux.  Burl through the hardest moves and up onto the beautiful red headwall to find tricky 5.11 climbing to the anchors.  A brilliant and difficult route!

Climb the water polished rock leading up from the waterside.  A variety of different routes offer 5.10 to 5.12

Follow the hand sized crack up and over the blocky feature

Start from either the ledge or the road (easy climbing to the first bolt). Face holds on the right and side pulls on the left get you through a few clips then into some sinker jams. Figure out the first bulgey section on decent feet, jams, and locks to a good rest before the last little bit. Battle the upper part using the crack or other features to the chains.

The lower section of the crack needs a little gardening and cleaning to make this route better. Birds, their poop, and eggs may be present.

6 bolts to anchors with chains.

This route climbs the obvious chimney feature just to the right of the light grey horse shoe-shaped feature at the far left side of the Gully Wall.

Begin with opposing side pulls and scamper up into the wide cleft.  Clip bolts on the right but keep in mind this is a stemming route, the wall to your left is full of good foot placements and the occasional hand hold.  Continue up the chimney until it ends and you are forced onto the face.  The trickiest moves on the route guard a good ledge with a hand crack in a corner leading up to the chains.

The crux of this route is clipping and moving away from the 2nd bolt.  There is a good ledge about halfway up the route that splits it into two distinct sections.  The second half, on the reddish headwall is really cool though it wanders back and forth between a choss-filled crack on the left and the jugs on the finish of The Judge, the route to the right.  Good route.

6 bolts with one open shut anchor and one carabiner. Super cool flake climbing for the first 3 bolts, then traverses left. Crux is around bolt 5 getting to 6th bolt, having to find some slightly hidden holds. After the 6th bolt do a quasi mantle up to the top and trust your feet to get to the chains. A little dirty so wear your helmet!

A slabby chute-like climb with ample bolts.  Good for beginners and new leaders.  Fun

Pulling the roof is the business.  The rest is easier but still engaing with a tricky ending.
