A little tower thing. Kind of fun, mostly useful as a landmark.  Walk off.

Fun easy face climbing to a little bit of thinness, to a cool, mysteriously attached cobble. Can top out. Could also rappel this route on the descent from the rim / approach.

 Somehow forgot to take a photo...

One of the two routes on the ZT buttress. Hardish start to easier blocky climbing. Move left towards the top, clip whatever anchor you set or mantel out.

For the most part, fun steep face climbing. A little looseness if you stray too far left, but everything on the line is more or less solid apart from some blocks sitting on the midway ledge. Crux is about in the middle where the gear gets a little thin and you have to do some steeper pulling. To finish you can go straight up the hand crack, or step left, clip a bolt, and pull an airy roof on hero jugs. Both finishes are great.

A couple of climbs down off the rim, north of the other established crags. There are a couple of other older routes up on the rim that look cool. I always see Zone-tail hawks here, thus the name. 

  Two climbs on the main buttress and others on the descent to get there. There's a lot of choss around, but the actual buttress is pretty solid, and has some room for more routes.
