Climb the right arete on the first buttress west of Treasure of the Sierra Madre.  A serious lead on easier terrain and a very nice line.

Follow a crack system to the top.  The first half has some tricky moves in somewhat dirty rock.  The dihedral in the upper half is unpleasantly loose.

Climb a right arching hand crack to a large stuck block, jam the left side of the block to exit the arete then up easy face climbing.  Hopefully the block will not fall off while you are climbing it.

This west facing route is adjacent to a large yucca plant. Accessing the first two bolts requires difficult moves (crux) above the yucca. A fall below the second bolt would leave you impaled on the "Spanish bayonet" (stick clipping is an option). Continue past one more bolt and horizontals to a large ledge. Fun but short (2 out of 5 stars).

A striking line up the longest buttress at the Cirque. Mostly steep face climbing on large holds, many of which are loose and crumbling. Leading this route might feel like a chossy freesolo FA.

Probably best left as a TR after climbing some of the other nearby routes. If TRing - you must build your anchor on the lowest "summit ledge", as a 60M rope will barely reach the top of the 3rd class start from here. Knot the ends!

A fun and varied line, and the longest at the Cirque. Starting in a small corner just left of the toe of the long buttress containing "Soup Rhymes with Poop" 5.8, climb up and then left to a prominent black left-leaning crack system. Good gear protects a few cruxy sections in the crack, which then leads to runout but easier face climbing to the top.

An offwidth in a dihedral (crux) leads to easier crack climbing and then the top.

Face climbing and possible ground fall before the second of two bolts add to the fun of reaching an easy finger and hand crack above.

Stem up the wall behind you to reach good loose holds on a short steep wall - step right soon after the second bolt to the easy loose arete and a large ledge.
