A decent little climb.  Solo half-way up the left side of the Chemistry Slab and look for a black painted hanger on the left wall. Clip this and start the traverse.  There's a fixed pin shortly after the first bolt, clip it with a quickdraw if you enjoy rope-drag.  Make a couple of moves out left to join the last bolt and climbing of Angular Motion. Out On A Limb is a bit spicy as a fall in the middle of the traverse (crux) would put you on or very near the slab behind you.  Despite this, it's a fun, worthwhile climb and the necky section only lasts for a move or two.  If you don't come down with at least a little bit of yellow lichen on your clothes, you are not doing this climb right.   

  There is a totally ignored second pitch that's mossed over. Skip it or risk your hide like I did a few years back.

One of the best routes at Carver.  It has two solid cruxes and the movement is fantastic.  The bottom crux is a powerful move off of a pinch, and the top is a more delicate sequence up the arete.  Just be sure not to blow the second clip. 

  Highly recommended

Do not miss this beautiful finger crack! The route begins with tips and gradually moves into larger fingers. The business comes early, however, it is easily protected with a nut.

This route is a hand crack following the right edge of the chemistry slab. It appears that you have to layback your way up, but that's not the case with ample feet up the slab for balance. Plenty of good stances abound. 

  Have the second clean this route as doing so when lowering will pull you away from the crack.

After 30 ft. of scrambling through an overgrown slab, this route finally gets to business at a very thin and powerful crux.  It's a bit dirty and it's drilled/chipped, but this is about as tough as it gets at Carver.

Follow the wide crack chimney, joining Leaning Uncertainty and Crimson Tide up above. It might be possible to fit really wide gear in down low, but it's easy climbing that can be run out.

The climbing isn't difficult, but be aware that gear placements are thin and tricky. 

Easy climbing to the second bolt lead to a tenuous crux section. Stemming while using an awkward sidepull followed by a powerful bump (or reach) to good holds characterize the crux. This is followed by easy climbing to the shared anchors of Rubicon.

Start on the far left margin of the Yellow Wall and move up a low angled ramp trending right. After clipping the first bolt step across the gap onto the slab. Alternatively, climb the crack, skipping the first bolt, for a more direct start. Traverse across the slab into a few technical, vertical moves and pull up to a ledge. Move left along a horizontal crack system with big holds. Make some technical moves into the dihedral. Pull out the top of the dihedral and traverse right along a slab. Some big holds lead to a massive lie-back flake. Make some juggy moves and you are at the anchor.

This route starts to the right of the flake on Chemistry Slab and follows that crack to the anchors on the left.  Really easy and a good first trad lead.

Ramped crack joins left leaning crack under overhang.

Despite this route's short stature, it as the name implies challenging.  Begin on easy slab climbing to the first bolt where big moves on small incut holds await. Move past two more bolts up and left or head right after the third into an enjoyable undercling.

Thin slippery moves to the first bolt, then easy cruising to the 4th bolt crux.  A bit run out after the 4th bolt, but the climbing is easy on huge jugs.  The tree has chains for belaying and rapping.

A series of very thin crimps up a gentle overhang is the prelude to a tricky dyno, which is followed by a mantle and a couple of slab moves.  Very bouldery. 

  The first bolt comes after some pretty strenuous moves so it would probably be wise to pre-clip it.  An alternative to climbing straight up to the first bolt is to start up Angular Motion and traverse over after 10ft. or so.

The awesome-looking, lichen-covered, overhanging crack above the slab. Although the difficult climbing doesn't last long, the exposure is wild as you commit to the tipped back traverse to the anchor.

You can toprope the face just to the left of the trad route Crimson Tide. There are no bolts and no cracks to protect until high up on the face, so set this one from above and take a burn on it before you pull the rope. 

The Yellow wall contains some of the most popular routes at Carver, including the sublime Angular Motion (.12a).  It's to the right of where the trail comes up to the wall from the forest, and it's main feature is the large  yellow slab topped by a jubled roof.
