A short, gently left leaning and steep offwidth crack, made reasonable by a few holds, leads to a ledge.  Now follow the line of two bolts up the left side of the nice, exposed buttress with some steep face climbing at the top.  This one is sort of “Western” since it requires two quite opposite climbing skills – a bit of Vedauwoo and Joshua Tree together!Bolts protect the most thin and committing moves.

House Broken

Start up a toothy handcrack and then drift onto face climbing when the crack ends. Move on up the right side of the blunt arete to the horizontal. Traverse to the left  to the anchors that are common to all the routes on this face. Nice position on the upper face and  well protected. A climb well worth doing when in the area. Tape up.

A classic scary mixed climb up the middle of the face. Start this climb by frictioning up quite a ways to the first bolt. Not terribly difficult but remember where you are in reference to help if you crater. Pass another 2 bolts and aim for the left side of the flake. Once the flake ends move up to the horizontal and then on to the anchors. Pro is kind of thin through the crux section at the top. Fun climbing through the bolted face.

Start up a steep slab to a high bolt. Hard moves past the bolt lead to a right facing flake then on up the blunt arete ( same as House Broken ) to the horizontal. Move left to the anchors. Might be a good idea to stick clip the bolt. This climb is a one move wonder but still worth doing when in the area.

A nice mixed climb up the left side of the face. Starting out by climbing past 3 bolts up to a scary looking flake. Over this and pass 3 more bolts on the blunt arete to the horizontal. Move right to the anchors.

South facing wall. All the climbs end at the same anchors.
