Crimps down low, to a bit of a bulge/crux leading to a slab with 2 rap rings. Overall not a bad climb but needs some traffic and love. Kinda chossy from neglect.

Follow a pair of thin seams up the arete to the right of "Flake and Bake." Not more than 20' of real climbing. Rock quality is not great, lots of flaking edges and crumbling crimps, but I guess the movement is kinda fun.

Much like a route at the Fun Factory, you will be climbing on mostly manufactured holds, especially at the top. The bottom starts with an interesting technical section, using a really cool hold around the 2nd bolt. Easier low-angle climbing leads up to a small roof and an overhanging finishing headwall. This headwall is much easier than it appears due to the huge jugs that were drilled out. Pretty fun though…

Obvious thin hand crack/flake on the left side of Rubble Row. Climb up the steep flake past three bolts, jamming or laybacking as you see fit. Then wander up some ledges to the anchor. Fun crack but there's barely 20' of it.

Can also be led on gear if you want.

Climbs the corner on the right side.

Start up the corner and with a mixture of stemming and good jams make steady progress.

At the 4th bolt pull onto the right wall and make some nice moves on improving holds, to pass the 5th bolt.

The climbing is fairly continuous for the grade.

Start by mantling onto a large flake, and then follow it with a tricky sequence passed the 2nd bolt.    Continue up the left leaning groove, with one last hard part before stepping right onto a hanging slab.

Traverse right over the slab to the anchors.

Nice, long moderate route with (a lot of) blue bolts. This route starts by climbing up a small pillar of rock toward an obvious crack in a dihedral. After the crack, fun face climbing on big (drilled) holds takes you over a slight overhang and up to the anchors.

Start of the short steep section on crimping on small sharp flakes.   After these flakes the climb move left of a blunt arete and on improving holds.

Continue up and left until a glued in block hold is reached at the 6th bolt.    Make a tricky sequence of moves up and right, from where the anchors are soon reached.

This line follows the green bolts leading up the obvious crack-like feature on the overhanging headwall. This route, like the two to its left, has massive manufactured holds...

Hard crimping and an early crux right off the ground.  The climbing remains sustained up to the first roof and the second crux.  The most technical part of the climb is working up to and clipping the permenant chain draw, and involves a insecure finger lock.  Then two more bolts of sustained climbing to the anchors.  Probably the best and hardest 13a's at the quarry.

Slab moves lead up and left to a bulging section with interesting moves between the 3rd and 4th bolt. Once over the bulge continue up the slab above and cut right at the top to anchors on a block.

This newer route is a worthwhile addition to the crag, and although the top section is a little dirty the quality of the moves lower make up for it.

A short section of easy slab gains the first bolt at the base of bulging section split by twin crack/seams. Power over the bulge on surprisingly good holds and then finish up a groove with a crack to anchors.

A short section of slab leads into a right-facing corner system with jamming/liebacking to gain a ledge above the corner. Cut slightly left to join

The Plague

at it's 5th bolt and finish up that route via a groove with a crack.

This route is currently a little rough around the edges but more traffic will help to clean this up.
