Just to the left of Phantom there is a crack system that goes through a small overlap at mid height.  Continue up flakes and cracks till you are able to pull a larger overlap top the left of Phantom.  Pull this and establish yourself below a lone bolt on a smooth slab.  Climb the slab to the top.  Hard moves.

Perfect hand jambs off the ground, in a right leaning corner that turns into layback flakes continuously pushing the climber out to the right.Then start pulling on edges and pockets up the bolt protected face, looking for the occasional bomber horizontal for fingers and gear. 

Start on Suspended Sentence for 15ft and move right. .75 cam protects this part, the rest is bolted. Climb slab to roof, boulder through the roof and climb arete!

good rock, crimps all the way up a vertical face. 

Climb up below the roof on flakes. Follow dihedral and crack to top.

Recently scrubbed up nicely and in my opinion the better climb at the crag.climbs the left of the two corner systems. we climbed this pitch differently than Handren's book described it and seemed to protect much better. Climb the left facing corner to its near top, finish with a few layback moves and instead of stepping out right onto the face (no gear from what i could tell) we stepped left to a comfortable stance, then continued up to horizontal cracks and good gear placements which lead up and right to the big layback flake feature. another fifteen feet gets you to a two bolt belay. CLIMB THIS ROUTE!!

Climb the dike to the base of the roof sporting a 4 inch jam crack. The start is a little mungy but should clean up. Hand jam, fist jam, scum, stack, and whatever else you feel like doing out the off set crack. A nice ledge and a fixed anchor awaits after you pull the lip. You can walk/scramble to and fro this ledge.

Cruise up some low angle terrain placing gear. Establish yourself in the base of the corner and get ready for the business. Clip a bolt and launch into a series of thin moves to pull onto the thinner face above. Blast into a quick,crimp fest while sussing out the beta that works best for you. Once  below the roof collect yourself at the booth-babe rest and follow the bolts out right to the anchor up high passing the anchor for tears in the rain. A direct finish skips the last 2 bolts and bumps the grade to 12a/b.

This route starts by climbs a number of blocky steps while making use of a few horizontal cracks and medium sized crimps for hand. The crux is the first twelve to fourteen feet as one works up to a clean and deep horizontal crack. This crack is the first opportunity for good gear placement. The reminder of the route is still fairly sustained, but slightly easer that the initial crux moves. The top out is at a significantly sized tree that can be used for a top rope anchor or to rappel from.

It's a variation finish to the first pitch climb "repeat performance" which climbs the right of the two corners.climb the corner to the roof, undercling cool featured holds and hand jambs out left, crank over the roof on great edges (crux), continue on up in to the final corner with attention grabbing moves.Two bolt lower off.

Climb up the center of the groove groove for 40' to a small overlap.  Make a tricky mantel like move to a ledge on the right (5.9).  Make a couple reachy moves on good holds staight up till you are able to traverse easily off right on ledges (5.4 DFU).

Climb the right leaning crack on amazing and fun jams to crack's end. Start as low as possible down there. When the crack ends face climb straight up (crux) to a bolt around the corner. Two options exist from here, climb the left face up to the top or continue up the right face and cracks to a shallow tip layback corner and a thin face moves. Lot's of great climbing! Pine tree anchor. I didn't see a bolt anchor.

From the oak tree, up a mossy slab to broken rock, protect and move left.  Climb up short sparsely protect slab to a small roof that has a questionable fixed nut, back this up then move left up a groove and mantle onto ledges and to the anchor.  There is tons of poison ivy on this ledge.  Move up and left from the belay into a v-groove (hard)that's capped by a roof. Pass this into another slot/chimney (awkward) with another roof.  Mantle this then climb more easily up ledgey rock to the top.

Outback Cliff is hidden in the woods up behind Sundown's Main Cliff. Over the years it has developed a somewhat notorious reputation as a mythical, hard-to-find cliff. With a GPS and and/or an advanced sense of cunning, The Outback Cliff isn't really that hard to find, and it's surprising close to the parking lot. 

  As of August 2012, the cliff looked like it had become reclaimed by the forest. But then again, almost every obscure cliff in New Hampshire tends to look like that in the depth of summer. There are a few worthwhile routes at the cliff, most notably Interzone, Love Crack, and Hyperspace. An inspiring photo George Hurley on Hyperspace appeared in a 1990's edition of Climbing magazine. Perhaps this photo contributed to Hyperspace's popularity, and prompted Jerry Handren, in his new guidebook, to refer to Hyperspace's "oversold" reputation. 

  The Outback Cliff seems to revel in contradictions: the routes are supposedly great, yet no one climbs them; the approach is short, yet everyone gets lost. I think the best beta is to go there and check it out for yourself...that is, if you can find it.
