Steep slab at the left side of the area being referred to as the "Sundeck." Friction and crimp up the slab past 3 bolts.

Sunny Delight

R.J. Sunshine

Sun King

Sunshine Daydream

Mickey Mantle

Follow the flaring seams to the left of the bolt line. Start at the base of the seams, working directly up. There is an occasional hold on the face to the right. After the upper seam bends to the right, the climbing eases off and continues to the anchor, shared with Mickey Mantle.

This route follows the left-most modern bolt line on the wall, between

Mickey Mantle

and

Sunshine Daydream

.  Like its neighbor to the right, it starts with a bulge, but in this case even less for the hands and feet.  Continue up the bolt line on slopers and small edges, finally reaching easy ground above the last bolt, and nicely runout like the top of the Sunshine Daydream.  Continue to the bolted anchor, shared with Sunshine Daydream.  Rappel to descend.

This is the bolt line furthest to the right.  It has two very nice cruxes.  The first is a power balance move right off the deck.  This is a sweet move that can be approached from a couple different angles, depending on your height.  It is protected by the first bolt which is clipped before starting up.  A mix of good edges and delicate smears takes one past the second bolt to the upper crux, protected by the third and final bolt.  Again, height and reach determine the best line and this one is all about smearing.  Once above this second crux, the wall lays down for some easy climbing to the chains.  But the fun isn't over; this upper half of the climb is like an easy version of Let it Bleed.  When you're 20' above your last pro and climbing with no actual holds you don't tend to think about how easy the climbing is.  ;-)  The Sundeck sees very few ascents but this one should not be missed!

Mickey Mantle climbs the center of the Sundeck. Start up the shallow seam about 10' right of the prominent dark streak, about 10' left of the next route. The seam allows no real protection but the climbing is easy and you can sling the wide horn of the mantle ledge. Continue up the face past one bolt to the left-facing flake. The flake protects well with a small cam. Follow the flake to easy slab climbing that leads to the anchor, shared with Top Rope. Rappel to the Sundeck to descend.
