Effects Of The High starts by stemming up to a bulge and the first bolt 15' up the cliff next to whats left of an old bee's nest.  Small gear with an extendible can be used to protect the first moves.  Pull the bulge and to gain more technical move on overhanging rock all the way to the anchor.

P1. 5.13a. 9 Bolts, 2 Bolt Anchor.  Special Forces starts on top of large blocks that have a small cave under them.  The first bolt is located 8' high.  Climb up sloping holds on a extremely difficult, overhanging face trending right on the well sewed up bolt line.  Pull through a notch to gain a ledge then move straight up to gain the first anchor 55' up the wall.  

  P2.  5.10c.  10 Bolts, 2 Bolt Anchor.  Climb up the ramp left of the first anchor.  Follow bolts under the roof to reach the second belay. 

  P3.  5.12a.  Climb right from the anchor into a corner chimney and follow this up some run out bolts where gear can be used. This feature will lead to a final anchor shared with Dreams Never End.

Clip the first bolt at head height and climb up the slab to reach the overhanging face.  Medium gear can be used before pulling the crux moves on the steep left trending bolt line.  Finnish on the upper half of King Size.

Start on the first three bolts of Seismic Wave and traverse right to the fourth bolt. Lieback to jugs and a nice rest ledge before pulling into the massive v-slot and wide stemming. Good access to the anchor for the three climbs to the right. Some really enjoy this climb as a warm up.

Start up the slab and cut left along the base of the overhanging face.  Continue trending left linking route after route on what ever bolt is gives you the least amount of rope drag till you reach the anchor of Seismic Wave.  Try to keep about a 45 degree angle on this climb.

Clip bolts up the slab then follow the crack at the bottom of the roof up and right.  Plug gear and clip bolts until the top of the route where you will cut left on steep face moves just below the anchor.

The Dark Slide shares a start with Seismic Wave.  The first bolt is located 8' off the ground then follow three fixed draws through a notch and a triangle roof feature.  Keep right up the arete past a another notch, finish by cutting left on crimps to the anchor of Seismic Wave.

Start under a medium sized 30 degree overhanging face with a 2" crack going through it.  Use small to med cams to protect the first 20' or a stick clip.  The first bolt is located 22' up the wall on a bulge after the overhanging section.  Continue directly up past a few more ledges and on to some overhanging cracks with bolts.  The anchor is hanging on the lip of a roof. 

  This route has a second pitch extension. Instead of clipping the anchor follow the bolts left and pull the bulge. Route continues on a fun and tricky face. Needs a 70m rope to lower and 18-20 draws.

P1  Begin on a slabby face clipping four bolts that trend right. Gain a steep overhanging crack that is protected by bolts. Climb up and right past a tinny bee's nest.  Fight up the crux crack with amazing jams along with some flared moves.   P2  Form the anchor continue up and over the bulge to a ledge.  Keep going up on right trending face moves on fun bulging fetchers.  You will pass a few more ledges before reaching the last two bolts of the route.  Lower form this point.

Grainstorm climbs a thin broken crack to the right of First Amendment. Climb some hard/awkward moves to a great knee bar. then climb the overhanging crack to meet with Dreams. Bring some gear for the crack.

Buddha Belly starts down low on a overhanging boulder feature with the first bolt being 10' high.  Then pull onto a slabby face.  Trend slightly left after the second clip and clip your way to an anchor shared with Dreams Never End.

Dreams is a fun climb located a few climbs to the right of Seismic Wave. The first pitch is most commonly done. It begins below a short crack in a bulge above your head. Climb over the bulge to get to a rest, then climb to the shared anchor on First Amendment, Grainstorm, Buddha. Additional pitches exist after the first anchor.  

  Pitch 1: 5.11d.  Climb some bouldery moves to a good rest, move left and climb through sustained moves ending on a crack and some easy moves to the chains. 70ft 

  Pitch 2: 5.11b. Climb on good holds left of the chains to a right leaning ramp, be very careful of loose blocks. Pass 7 bolts on the ramp and exit out left on steep climbing (3 more bolts) to a two/three bolt anchor. 100ft  

  PItch 3: 5.11d. climb left on good holds and good feet to a technical and difficult corner. Stay direct on the corner and move past the crux using crimps and compression magic. End at a 2 bolt anchor. 40ft. There is another bolt visible from the anchor but it is missing a hanger, I imagine this would take you to the top of the wall.  

  Either rap with 2 60M ropes to the ground. Or rap straight down to the clearly visible anchor a second rap will take you to the ground. Both of these raps are largely free hanging.

The left cave gets sun most of the day. Some days this cave can be very crowded other days you will not see a single person. This cave like the right cave will have a few dry routes when it is raining. Watch for rockfall even if it is a high traffic area.
