Vertical fingery start with an easier slab finish.  If you are heading to The Beach, this is a good warm-up.

Tragically Hip

Mashing Cactus

Jump for Cholla

Chunky Monkey

Twistin' Off

Sunshine Boys

Sunnyside Up

Follow crack to chain anchors, beware of cactus in crack and small loose boulder and block

Fun warm-up or first 5.9 lead.  More enjoyable and also felt easier than the 5.8 just to the left.  Starts with small but positive holds and turns a roof halfway up.

First route you come to on the Sunnyside wall.  Starts with a short LF corner to a roof.  Felt quite hard for 5.8--harder than the 5.9 to the left.

A brilliant, exposed, slightly overhung JUGGY arete/face climb.  Except for a couple of wild moves, most of the route is left of the arete. 

  The 5.10 approach pitch is not bad and should not keep you off this climb.

Moderate climbing to some thin face and a fun bulge finish.  Bulge at the top is a little easier if you are 5.8 or so.

Across from the main wall and below and right of The Beach.  Super sunny, warmest spot in the canyon.
