Beautiful corner stemming route. It starts on soft rock through 4 glue-in mega-bolts(don’t over-commit your feet onto anything) but moderate movement. The climbing really starts after the 4th bolt with thoughtful stemming and small fingers in a corner. Gear abounds but some of it requires techy stances to place well, and to fully visualize the placement, but lots of options for reasonably good pro. Work up to a great stem at the top of the corner where the dihedral scoops-back into a steeper curve, and from a magical left foot on an unlikely feature resembling 1/3 of a softball. Commit the last dihedral moves and find a better finger crack where glorious 5.11 climbing is your reward for another 40’ to the anchor.

 Thanks to Leslie for help establishing the line, and to Logan for help equipping it.

This is a great warmup handcrack, perfect tight #3 hands. Very clean fun. Unfortunately, it stays in the sun til 2pm.  I will probably get some flack from small-handed folks about hand-discrimination at this crag.

Start from a pile of massive blocks, following a tips crack to a ledge. Proceed up a short section of hands in a corner to a large and precarious-looking block*, and clip the bolt to its right. Placing gear behind this block is unnecessary, and might be a bad idea. From atop the block, follow wandering finger cracks through fun sequences to the anchors. There are two obvious options in the upper third of the route--of similar quality and difficulty. Follow your rumen and practice selective grazing. This route was named in honor of the esteemed range ecologist Scott Woodall, who applies the term to desirable forage species.

 *We spent a good deal of time yarding on this boulder with a wrecking bar and it wouldn't dislodge. We even hauled a scissor jack out, but it didn't fit behind the block. If any of you engineer types can devise a way of prying on it from below while staying out of the fall-line, feel free to try, and pull the bolt if you succeed.

Very fun climbing on a variety of crack sizes, but mostly wide. 

Logan's attempt to reference his favorite comedy routine by Eddie Murphy.....Climb fun and well textured double finger cracks in a corner to a pod with easier climbing above.

This is an unusual route that pieces together a few features to make a very enjoyable and interesting climb. It has a well-protected and bolted crux, but the rest of the climb is gear, sometimes fiddly. 

 Start in a north-facing cave and stem/chimney up fun moderate movement through small ledges and a nice splitter crack to reach the first of two bolts. Consider accessing another smaller corner system to the right as you move through the bolted crux section. Commit to punching for the good rail and mantle up to last small ledge at base of upper corner. Fiddle in your 00 cam or stopper and make the final easy moves to the anchor.

Shallow left-facing corner with wide crack at start. Easy wide lieback gets you to bolt, then good stances before crux section. Hits shade on earlier side of the day. 

Obvious left-facing corner with classic double-finger-crack finish. 

The first half of the route is a shallow V-slot that requires a little bit of off-width-style heel-toe. The slot terminates in a small roof and then transitions via jugs to a steep finger crack. It's only 50 feet long, but every bit of that is good climbing.

Jam up a perfect hand crack behind a large hollow flake( waffle flake) passing one bolt about 15’ up before the flake becomes solid rock. The route has a short but excellent crux. Place high thin gear from a good stance at a pod and fire the moves using a mix of compression and lieback movement. It can be done straight up or by moving out right (slightly easier).  Then cruise up some easier but interesting terrain to the anchors.

This crack requires a bit of power and focus. A fun lieback start gets you to the base of first crux where you can easily shove a bomber red and or green C3 high into the seam. A couple of big moves get you to the base of a steep finger crack, and a mantle onto a ledge at base of dihedral. Make sure you have something close to a double set of C3s remaining on your rack.

Not much to say, pure fun on a great splitter.  This route goes into the shade a little earlier, maybe around 1pm. 

This is the business section. Lots of fun cracks on good rock.
