Climb a low angled slab to a short 5.9 section.  Finish on 10a edges.   

  I find that the bottom section cruises.  You'll know when you're at the first crux (5.9) when it gets steeper.  Perform the one move wonder to get past this section and cruise up to a ledge.  Ponder your sequence briefly and grab onto some solid (10a) edges.  A small mantle finishes it up.   

  For whatever reason, the lower "crux" seems harder to me, but I think it is more heady than hard.

This route starts with a very thin but well-protected slab crux before ascending up and slightly right into a faint water groove with a fun mix of technical and powerful movement. If you enjoyed Harp of Stone, this is worth a try. Bring your dancing shoes.

A tricky start past the first three bolts, gives  way to easier climbing.

Climb slabby 5.8-ish terrain and continue straight up when a line of bolts (Afternoon Delight, 5.8) forks off to the right.  When the rock steepens near the top, the crux comes on solid edges to the right of the bolt line.

What's My Line climbs more like a Smith route than a typical Flagstone slabfest.  After a slabby section at the bottom, the route turns vertical with small but solid crimps and a few underclings.  You may find yourself weaving left and right across the bolt line a few times.  The crux comes between the last two bolts, reaching for a distant pocket with the feet in a wide stem.

This route shares the 5.6 dihedral finish with High Noon, but provides a noticably harder start, and will feel hard for the grade. If you are not solid at the grade, a stick clip is probably not a bad idea. For people for whom this is their limit, toproping this with a directional or two after leading High Noon might not be a terrible idea.

This is a fun route with a wide variety of holds.  Climb High Noon or Morning Desire to a small ledge with two sets of belay bolts (optional belay, the climb can be done in one pitch if desired).  From this ledge, Walt's Wall goes straight up through a section of undercling flakes, then moves up and right on pockets and edges.  It finishes at a two-bolt anchor just over a small bulge.

Short balency crux between the 2nd and 3rd bolts.

A thin start brings you to ledges then the Harp. A good place to shake out. Continue up, keeping center and left of the bolts makes route finding easier as you pull the bulge (crux). There are chains directly up about 10 feet back. Or you could keep going right , its a little dirty. Very Fun for the grade!

A slabby climb using friction and edges.  Climb up and left until you reach a shallow left-facing dihedral.  Climb easier ground in the dihedral to a small ledge with two sets of belay bolts.

This varied route starts with a thin slab, then moves up and left through a slightly overhanging section with underclings, pinches, mantles...a bit of everything.  The crux is near the top, climbing past a thin flake.  After pulling a small bulge, you can either clip the anchors on the route just to the left (Beguiled) or continue up and right (about 30 feet of 5.6 slab) to another anchor.

Another slabby climb using friction and edges.  The crux comes near the top, as the route heads left to the same ledge that High Noon finishes on.
