Fun
Second best route on the face. Use a #1 cam between bolts 2 and 3 for some extra pro. I think if you use the giant crack on the left it makes the route 5.9. But if you follow the bottom straight up it's a 5.10a. Bottom two bolts are definitely the crux. After that 5.7/5.8 climbing.

Finally got the start and end connected. Use knee bar at the beginning.

Ascent Note
Did the direct route up to the left. 5.7ish? Very runout between bolt 3 and 4. Moving out of chimney to traverse left to bolt 4 was a bit scary and the mental crux of the climb. Found a purple cordlette at the top slung around a bolder for an anchor.

Fun route. Crux is going from bolt 1 to 2. Need to high step to get over the overhang. Trust the pockets over bolt 1. They're bomber.

Fun route. A little easier than Newt-ist colony. Use anchors to the left, same anchors as Amphibian.

Enjoyable little trad lead to get to the anchors on top. If only all crags were setup this way.

Would love to lead this if there were a couple bolts at the bottom. Really hard to naturally protect otherwise.

Fell twice. Great climb for a slab. Technical, thin, and crimpy.

Hardest part is at the bottom. Trickier than it looks. I thought the crux was hitting the first bolt. Would have appreciated more pro at bottom. 3 bolts total, followed by a shaddy anchor made of 3 pieces of webbing left by climbers.

Fun, easy route. Crux (if you could call it that) would be from bolt two to three. 4 bolts total. Couldn't find a bolt anchor on top, but did find fixed webbing around a sturdy tree on top. What happened to the anchor shown in the guide book?
