Ruling From the Roof

Learning Curve - Right

Follow the left facing flake for 10ft, then transfer onto the face above. Continue up the face to the roof at the top, ascending on the left side of the roof.

Climb the right facing corner for 10ft, then continue up a broken face for another 50ft to the top. Lichen and loose blocks are the biggest challenge.

To start, aim for the narrow ledge 8-10' off the ground that ends on the right with a right-facing off-width crack. Gain this ledge either with a couple reachy moves straight up (poor feet), or traverse in from the right (much easier) starting just left of the (other) right-facing off-width crack that reaches the ground. The gear placements becomes more plentiful higher up. Top out at the left end of the ~15' long roof at the top of the wall. Watch out for loose holds immediately under the roof. 

Climb up to a stance below a 1'x2' roof 10-12' off the ground. Move right under the roof and up a right-facing hand crack. Continue straight up past good horizontal cracks. Pull the roof at the small, rounded notch on the right half of the ~15' long roof at the top of the wall.    

A continuous section of cliff band wrapping around from the southern end of Black Rocks to the first of several west facing portions of Black Rocks. Climbs range in length from short easy 20-35 ft routes on the southerly facing section of the cliff to longer moderates on the west facing portion of the cliff.
