The hands and fists of this crack are deep in the V-grove but the route is clean and crisp.

This whitish line has some reaches and rice-er-roni before you get to the bolts.

Climb the crack within the "V" corner then to pods

The goal was to get to the splitter but while cleaning a big rock landed on Horn's foot.  He did not want to take his shoe off.  Sore and Blood but no broken bones.

The beginning of 1st pitch has a mild runout.  The 2nd pitch was done A0 and the 3rd pitch (overhanging crack with Scapelli Fist size) may have some bolts in route.  Anchors at top

This crisp crack offers a hand stack for short people but otherwise some power negotiations to get on the ledges.

An intermittant hold this crack to a larger crack

Climbs a 10-foot tall triangular pedestal into a clean open corner, and past a chimney with small gear in the back. Continue up the short hand crack roof to the anchors.

Climb from the left to the top of a pedestal and gain the main crack.  One or two moves will get you through the dihederal (no pro) and then some good jams.

Corner crack of the large left-facing dihedral. Original route jogged to the easier crack on the right of the main dihedral for about 20 feet. Friedrichs unknowingly fired straight through the thin 5.12 moves to stay in the dihedral.

Indian Cave Spelunkers follows the large crack system to reach the large cave located at the top of the Wingate Sandstone formation.  Rappel the route.

Climb a crack to the right of pic and then traverse to bolt anchors.

Hands and fists to wide squeeze crack and back to hands.

from the dirt begin some face moves to bolts and a very shallow thin crack to welded cold shuts on right

Wide right-facing dihedral left of the thin prominent splitter.

Find this route on the right side of the mouth of Little Italy Canyon.  This route goes quite smoothly until reaching a serious pinch out making it necessary to get your mindset out of jam, jam, jam to pass the constriction.

Starts as a quite thin crack and widens.  Get 'em all.

Dog Days climbs the double crack corner on the left-facing dihedral 150 feet right of Contact Solution. The crack on the right joins the corner for the last 20 feet of climbing.

begin a vertical very thin crack and climb to ledge.  An equally hard spot awaits you ahead

pass thru a few pods and some flair near the end
