Entrance Crack - Left/Hand

Right side of the arete, the obvious inner corner. Climb up easy rock to a stance at an incut and a long reach to a decent hold. Find some creative body positions to stem out and around the seamed-out crack, reach the good hold, and work your feet up until you can reach jugs. Very easy last few moves. Lots of good cracks to belay from in the .5-1" range. Easy walk-off.

Tiny foot chip start crank hard off and dyno to the jug above it.

I am 6'0'' with +1.5 span and I can just almost deadpoint the move.

Very fun move and easy top out once you have made the dyno...especially for it being on a slab wall.

Around the left side of the arete. Climb cracks and steps to a ledge. Follow the obvious finger crack straight up with a crux at the top gaining the very questionable flake. Lots of good cracks to belay from in the .5-1" range. Easy walk-off.

Tricky start, trends leftward as get into the second half, including time for a super positive mono (1 finger hold).

Here's what the Olson book says: "A stellar V2 thin crack corner that is much harder than it looks. Using rules staying in the crack will make it a V3.   Traversing in from the far left then up the central corner crack is V4.

Start on the obvious chalked, jutting, left hold, and right side pull. Climb up the nose of the boulder with small, crimpy holds on each side. Navigate passed the tricky sloper-pinch, gripping anything decent you can find, then launch to a decent hold and proceed carefully to the top. *EDIT* June, 2018, A newly released guidebook features this route as a V4 named "Tall Arete"

Start on the left line, and higher right hold. Climb up to the jutting feature, and ascend to a decent top out with an excellent shelf on the right.

From Tim Olson book "This classic line (and the next one) are the central feature of the West Nook.  they offer complexity, steepness, and quality great for bouldering or for a top-rope.

Sit start to an amazing flake that trends leftwards, then jugs to the top.

SDS with undercling and sidepull on an arete, bad feet. Shoot up and left to a tiny dimple (this is the singular "hard" move), walk up the feet (optional), and finish with jugs of your choosing.

Offwidth crack with a thin hands crack at the very back. crux is exiting the top of the crack, great for eliminates

Around the left side of the arete. Climb cracks and steps to a ledge. From this there are three options: finger crack, OW, and hand crack. Take the right option up the short but sweet fissure savoring the mild exposure on the arete. Clutch the edge at the top and scramble to the top. Lots of good cracks to belay from in the .5-1" range. Easy walk-off.
