To keep this at 5.7, the direct start climbs the steeper slab just left of pine tree to the high first bolt just under the small (1') roof. Step through the small roof and continue up the center of the licheny slab and continue into the right-facing dihedral with a couple bushes.

Route can be climbed at 5.6 by taking ramp to left and stepping right around the small roof after clipping the first 2 bolts.

Named for the rumbling thunder while bolting the route and slippery lichen on the FA.

Easy climbing up a ramp and past a coffee table sized boulder to the high first bolt.  Traverse left into the right-facing dihedral.  Crux is in the first 3 bolts after which stemming in the dihedral is your friend.

Follows the crack system through the roof located 20 feet above the ground. Continue up the crack system.

Sage advice from the Reverend Sport Trindleberg, "Fear, like pain, may just be Gods way of hurting us."

Climbs straight up from the top of Kaying or Ben's Barbeque and then trends right along a shallow seam to pass over the steep overlap.

Traverses up and right to the start of Royal Flush

Climbs the crack on the left side of the large Cornerstone Block at the skyline.

Pull the steep start and move up the thin, overlapping bulges above.

Start on steep, unobvious rock to move up to the right side of the slabby ramp; fun, airy traverse left to reach the arete.

Moves up and left from the top of Kaying to fire up a weakness in the short, steep, dark brown wall above.

Follow the steepening cracks to reach the top of the flake ledge. Pass the Beta Licker anchor at 80 feet to continue up and delicately move left to gain the larger holds on the skyline. Climbing only the first 80 feet to Beta Licker anchor is 5.10+.

Starts on steep rock in the gully just to the right of the small cone. Pass the two horizontal seams and continue straight up to anchor.

A few steep jugs lead to easier climbing before committing to the final crux moves.  Can be climbed using 5.11 or 5.10 moves.

Climbs the steep headwall above and to the right of Just Another Saturday Night. If you need beta, ask the man in black over a breakfast beer.

Great movement up the blocky, changing corners and past the horizontal seams onto the ramp above.  Use the midway anchor or bring a few pieces of small gear to finish the short crack to the top anchor.

After the steep start follow the climbing of the water streak to the anchor.

Starts at the slab of Cocao Free Blues and angles left to romp up even more slabby climbing.

Climb steep crack on the headwall above Just Another Saturday Night. The climbing is more fun than an accidental frontal lobotomy.

Start on steep rock, move into the short shallow dihedral, work right to the arete and continue up.

Step right onto wall, pass two horizontal seams, pull onto the headwall, and move through the small alcove below the small triangular overhang.

Badger Tracks is three pitches that trend up and right to reach the summit ramp. Can be used to access the start of Eat a Lotta Peaches, which ascends the right side of the large Cornerstone Block at the skyline.

P1:10b, Slab up and right to short open book headwall. Grab on and pull down ... (All bolts to open shuts, 70')

P2:10a, Ascend the hand crack corner and then step/traverse right (All bolts to cold shuts, 40')

P3:10, Climb the face (probably all bolts ... to cold shuts, 95')

Step onto wall, pass two horizontal seams, pull into the scoop, and follow the right edge of the steep varnished wall.

Just right of Sex at Noon Taxes, angle right across the slabby panel and continue up.

Climbs the short slab and fires out the short headwall splitter crack feature.

Make the airy step left onto the wall and follow the large edges upwards. At top the direct finish above the last bolt is 5.10a/b, traversing right towards the small pine is 5.9

Climb up 20 feet and move right into the dihedral. Enjoy the stemming to the top.

Ascends the steep water groove through two overhangs.

Slab up to the overhang then power and finesse into the open dihedral. Work your way past the second overhang to reach the anchor. The popular option of linking the Beta Licker to the end of the Down Converter has been dubbed Beta Converter, 12a, which provides three distinct cruxes.

Where you gonna fall ... when you realize ... you just can't have it all.  Climbs a series of sidepull/layback flakes up questionable rock.  Belay off to the side.

Climbs the left side of the small cone that sits at the base of the wall.

Pass to the right of the overhang on the slabby tongue of rock and continue up the arete.

Overhanging start to a second short steep section.  Follow easier rock up.

Step onto the wall, pass two horizontal seams, and follow the left edge of the steep varnished wall. Finishes on Red Mite anchor or can trend right to Kaying anchor.

Climbs the shallow crack system that splits the dark brown varnished rock on the steep right side of the Cornerstone Block.

Enjoy the jugs on the overhanging start and get those feet established above the roof.  Follow easier rock up.
