Another classic line at the Gallery, start on easy terrain and move through several cruxes up higher.

Overhanging jug haul. A hold broke off the original line, increasing the difficulty. Keep an eye out for the no hands rest ~2/3 of the way up!

Set up a top rope and stem your way up the chimney

Low crux. One move wonder. Fun first clip.

Somewhat sustained difficulty. Hard stuff seemed to be in the middle.

Easy pocket climbing, leads to a crux pulling the bulge, and ends on a stint of slab.

Start on the big crack 10 feet further left of The Walrus.  Go up through the vertical seam.  Bottom can protect with wedges if you need them.     Variation 5.10c: Stay a few feet right of the 2nd clip.

Interesting climbing, different than most of the routes at the Gallery. The anchor is set unnecessarily far back up a lichen covered slab, but one could easily use "The Walrus" anchor just to the left before the low-angle slab.

Overhung crack to the left of Group Therapy.  When crack ends, climb to the left or right (your choice) and top out on either Group Therapy or King's Jester.

Start to the right of chemney about 6ft, after the last bolt there is a gear placement in a pocket, a #3 tri-cam , if you need it, may have been retro bolted,

Short but good, beginner-friendly for sure. Start at the bottom, climb to the top. Use the holds.

Sustained high quality route, makes a great warm-up.  Crux is somewhat height-dependent and involves surmounting the first bulge about half way up. Slab top out.

Pocket climbing, to a bulge crux. Slabish ending.

The area receives sun almost all day, and is one of the first areas to dry out after a rain. The climbs in this area are consistently good, although sometimes similar in nature. Check out the area classic, Group Therapy for a lesson in pump or battle one of the areas ubiquitous bulges just around the corner on Cut/Sore/Deep Throat. Try to avoid gear sprawl on the trail here, as this is a fairly high traffic area.
