The other day my girlfriend and I climbed for the first time at Schoolhouse... which was great. Has anyone tried to set up TR about ten feet to the right of Arachnaphobia? I set up to two trees about 15 feet back from the edge. This climb was great. Started at the very left of the cave/arett area and moved to the first major ledge and then up along the big flake that you can under cling to. This would be an excellent sport route. Has any one else climbed this?

Did it start with a small overhang 10-20 feet off the ground? It sounds like one of the routes I did on gear at the schoolhouse crag. I ended up traversing left to bolt anchors (I think on arachnaphobia?) Tim would know best though.

I attempted to begin on the left side of the overhang, but wasn't able to do it. So, I started right where the overhang began (the far left side). This way I was able to remain on top rope and just step onto the wall. This point is several feet to the right of arachnophobia. As I climbed, I stay to the right of the sport routes.

Is there a section of balancy face climbing just above the overhang?
