Sheila heads up Dyke Surfer, a solid 9 face climb with a fun hand crack finish, on a beautiful spring day. The desert flowers were in full bloom, just begging to be photographed. Photo taken: 3/12/05.

I did not get a chance to do this route, because I stumbled across it late in the afternoon. I am sure it will be the one I warm up on the next time I visit Margheritaville.

The "Side Track Area" Is full of great sport routes. Fun for the whole family. Cool 5.8 is one you dont want to miss. The routes in this area face north thru south west.

The east face with the popular target route Pistlegrip in late afternoon shade.The background reflecting the many large slabby pitches that can be found in the area.

A view of the difficult CCXXL baking in the sun on a sweltering Aug. afternoon.Give it a try,if you can't do the crux move a little French will get to those top anchors.

This is a long west facing wall with many good climbs, from 5.8 to 5.11+. Gets afternoon sun.
