Smooth Sailing is a pleasure cruise through a wonderful series of beautiful pockets down low, and flakes and edges above.  Start right of the Sundial past the chossy crack.  Move up and right through the largest line of pockets, then follow bolts and path of least resistance. Shares anchor with Stack Of Waves.

The Sundial

Stack of Waves

The Sundial is the left most route on the formation.  The line is hard to miss as it climbs a large leaning pillar of sorts.  A bouldery beginning leads to better holds along the obtuse left arete. Another little boulder move protects the anchors.  Best to have someone follow this line to clean the draws...

Coldsnap is a unique line... Different. Start by climbing to the third bolt on Whitecap. At that point start moving right around the corner on really good holds. Keep moving right, and up the middle of the face, to a pumpy little crux. Essentially a jug haul, and an excellent warmup for the harder lines as it delivers a steady pump.

Good climbing and one little balance section at mid height. Cool pockets and thoughtful edges. It’s a nice pre warm up for the Main Wall.

Stack of Waves is another enjoyable little romp up some very big holds.

The Sailing Wall hosts a fine collection of pocketed warmups with grades from 5.8- through 5.11. It's good place to get started if you have hiked straight up, and a few of these are the easiest lines up here.
