3 out of 5 stars Grainy But Groovy

Fun moves. Interesting small pockets and good protection. Enjoyed the exciting upper slab moves on crunchy bits. Should be very good with a few more ascents.

4 out of 5 stars Sweet Slab Climbing

Fun moves up the slab and over the left side of the overhang on just enough pockets and knobs. Well protected.

Nice steep, committing moves pulling the bulge. Got to love that mono-digit pocket.

3 out of 5 stars Wonderful

Great climbing on excellent rock, with a variety of amazing pockets. Never gets too difficult, but not really sport bolted. Requires exploration to locate the best pockets and sequence as the route steepens to the final bulge.

3 out of 5 stars More Beer

The opening move is a lot steeper than it 1st appears.
Fun moves that aren't straight up, but meander up and across the face utilizing a variety of pockets, edges, and knobs. Fun and well protected.

3 out of 5 stars Spider's Line

Wow! We had fun on this line. Hot in the sun, but very comfortable in The Canyon. Not exactly a sport climb, due to the bolt spacing, and meandering line, but clean and well protected, good fun.

1 out of 5 stars Grab the Brush

Steep fun moves at the bottom, and a final headwall. Fun moves, but we knocked off lots of loose flakes and choss on the way up and down this route. The FA party needs to clean the loose bits and the epoxy drips.

4 out of 5 stars Nice Solitude

Fun moves, on well featured stone. Long, but difficulties ease just as the pump clock starts to activate. Well protected. Careful lowering off as the fall line isn't down the route.

2 out of 5 stars Forgot My Extendo Arm

Fun climbing on the cobbled and smooth lower apron leads to an exciting clip and a wild move over and onto a large inclusion/block. From the large hole, plainly visible from the ground, make a reachy clip and enjoy the wild move onto the protruding block. Reasonable protection and fun moves.
