Start off in a bit of poor rock with hands. As you continue up, the crack pinches down and the rock scoops out past vertical. Once the crack disappears, clip a bolt and go for the anchors. This has great movement on good rock.

For most folks, the crux is off the ground with the wide hands crack. The rock is rough! Once past the wide bit, it becomes easier and has some cool movements following the crack under and to the right of the roof.

Atomic Test Site is a fun V5+ on a rope in good rock.

The first half of the climb is the crux. It has good fingers and feet up the whole thing, and it has good rock. I wish it was longer!

Start in a dihedral. When you kind of run out of holds, match hands on a slopey pinch on the arête, and then move left to sandy crimps in the face. Stickclip a first high bolt.

This has an easy start with the crux coming after the second bolt when holds become small and crimpy at best. There is a fun hand switch for final bolt before a small run-out to the anchors.

Climb the lower angle, pocketed face just right of the prominent, wide, corner crack.
