Starting six to seven ft. right of Quill (just left of arete) climb upwards on face.

Three foot wide chimney infested with three trees.  Climb the outside of the chimney.  Included mostly as a reference point.

Wide-ish crack on the right wall of the needlepoint chimney. Nice jams along the crack at the far left arete. 

Start directly beneath the 18" wide zigzag roof. Traverse left around the roof and finish off on the large vertical crack. 

  Var. Pull the roof and continue up (not 5.4).

Climb straight up the wide crack on the right.

Probably already has a real name (feel free to post it below), but it has a variety of choices of crack climbing style possible from hand jams to offwidth technique.

Climb the large crack to the right of Stupid Route.

Climb straight up the wide crack on the left.

Climb the easiest line on the leftmost face.  The route runs where smoother rock on the left meets blockier rock on the right. A good warm-up.

A narrow chimney with one really big rectangular chockstone smack in the middle.

Follow the face up midway between the Bristling Arete and the Hemlock tree.

To the right of a large face and a good sized hemlock, follow the face with random blocks to the left of a large crack/gully. Use the arret if you must. 

Climb the face between the cracks. Thin hands in places.  The name refers to comments made by those unable to make the moves.  You know who you are.

Start 2-3 ft. right of the Bristling for Action Arete. Follow the face upwards.

Large crack on the far right side. Climb up into the hole, and if you are up to it, pull through the overhanging jam crack and stroll to the top. Committing moves with potential for ledge-fall. 

A short crag with a few good climbs.  This crag is typically shaded and makes for a nice summer crag when the days are longer.  The approach is somewhat longer than other cliffs in the area.  

  Long static or webbing for anchors is recommended. Please remember never to rap directly off trees. And when pulling ropes/webbing around trees try to make sure you're not wearing away the bark.
