Hidden on the bushy north face of Indian Garden East is this great little problem. We missed this thing the first time we came here. Start on two low, small holds with legs out wide to avoid a crumbly ledge and move up and to the right. A variation that goes straight up is a little harder.

Climb the right side of the east face of the main Indian Garden Boulder. It's not very difficult, but it is fun.

This is a fun, easy route. Put your gumbies on this one or start here to warm up.

This is the only noteworthy problem on Indian Garden West and is the tallest problem at the gardens. Start low on the right side of the west face and use crimps and pockets to climb straight up. It is rated PG-13 not for the landing, which is excellent, but for the brittle, crumbly rock at the top. If a piece gave out, it would be a long fall. It merits half a star because of the chossy topout.

Start by using a flake and pull yourself up the reddish-colored face.

This is a crimpy, slightly overhanging arete. Do a sit start and work your way straight up the corner. The hardest part is getting off the ground. A stand start might go at V1-2. This is somewhat reminiscent in style of

Vodka Arete Right

at the Shacks. A variation in between this problem and

Squanto

is sometimes called Shitting Bull (V3).
