A burly crack climb that features dead horizontal off-width and fist crack climbing for two body lengths. It is a reasonable clean aid climb on rainy days.

Grade is unknown, probably 5.11c to 5.12+.

Climb up dirty blocks (5.9) to a small ledge under the obvious roof crack. Clip a bolt, place a 4” cam as far as possible out the crack, and gun through overhanging fist jams for the top. Pull around the roof (crux), clip an old aid anchor, and cruise easier terrain to the tree belay.

If you don’t make it, the best retreat is to aid back down to the bolt and rappel.

A smaller orange roof split by a narrow crack left of Road Warrior roof crack. This crack is the highlight of the route.

Start about 10’ left of “Road Warrior” in a short right-facing corner with a bush in it. Face moves lead up to the crux roof. Pull the bulge on jugs and perfect finger jams—the crux and best climbing on the route. Mosey up the dark slab

to the top.

Start up the light-colored corner of Road Warrior, but escape the roof by underclinging to the right in a hand and finger crack. Follow this crack out the roof to the tree above.

Climb up easy rock to a challenging jog left into a steep fist crack.  Continue up the lower angle wide crack to the top. Be aware of expanding cracks and blocks when placing protection.
