Start up Orange Crush. Cut left at the obvious thin horizontal crack. Move into the chimney and up past two ledges. The crux is finding the move into the chimney.

Purple Haze

Orange Crush

Paint It Black

Black Magic Woman

Follow The White Rabbit

Green Tambourine

Yellow Submarine

Straight up the right side of the large roof. Same finish as Purple Haze. Pulling through the roof bypass is...interesting.

The largest weakness at the colorwall, the line was originally led on gear, pins and bolts in the 70's (?) by unknown climbers. There is still fixed gear, old and rusty (!?) and bolts at the top.

Start 10' to the right of Orange Crush. Pull up through small crimps to a small overhang. Crux is finding the way over the overhang. Slick, not positive, sloping edges make this a great climb for developing finger strength.

The second line from the right, BMW sends up an overhung, thin section to steep crimps.

Start on the black and orange lichen streaked wall to the left of the "Orange Crush" Pillar, and to the right of the start to "Green Tambourine".

Big balancy moves in between good holds, lead up and right to a good rest in the overlap, before the crux bulge where the holds get very thin, pull the crux on crimps v4/5. meet up with orange crush for some reprieve from cranking, then blast straight up for a final redpoint crux to the left of orange crush.

Start under the main roof on the right. Traverse under the roof and exit up the left hand crack. Crux is getting into the crack above the roof. Mungy, not climbed often.
