Area Map of Donations Rocks. Rough guide to main areas.

You can see the large rock shaped like Africa just to the left of the rope coming down to the climber (me). The rope in the photo is covering the large crack that you follow straight to the top. This large crack separates the two routes of "Africa" (on the left) and "East Africa" (on the right of the crack).

East of Africa Route at the main area of Donation Rocks.

The bottom section offers many possibilities (e.g., orange or blue dashed lines). The layback starts just above where the blue and orange lines come together.

Reach up and feel your way. There are some big jugs. Heel hook or very high step to get atop the overhanging section.

On the layback of the Layback route at Donation Rocks. Not much to push feet against so laybacking any further won't help...your feet will slip off the wall.

Nice climb. Most High boulder is a little mossy and wet, but a fun climb.

Top roped it a few times after initially sport-climbing it. Plenty of pockets gives you lots of opportunities to climb it differently each time.
