Starts in a recessed area and wanders up the featured face above rife with positive edges and flakes to a chain anchor at the lip.

Fun moves with great exposure the higher you get make this a popular route for the grade.

Bouldery moves at the start (being tall helps) gain larger holds at the second bolt and fun edges lead to the top.

Bolted on lead, which resulted in a grounder placing the second bolt when a hook popped - ouch!

Climbs the obvious and somewhat dirty chimney system. Not especially memorable.

This is a wide crack which narrows the higher you get and is rife with positive holds.

A fun route which takes the line up the center of the face using an undercling then thin edges and lieback flakes, the crux is moving right and onto the rest ledge one bolt from the top.

The opening moves up to the high first bolt are worrying, there's a good small Friend placement in a slot though before the undercling flake. The crux section also feels a tad runout.

This route climbs a series of short, double cracks 15' right of

Tombstone Shadow

. With fifteen feet of actual climbing it makes it hard to recommend this route - this is however the easiest way to the top of the formation.

Bouldery moves down low (like it's neighbor to the left) soon give way to arete pulling on this short, even somewhat squeezed feeling route. Despite the way it sounds, the moves are enjoyable enough to give it a spin if in the area.
