This mixed route starts on the north end of The Black Wall. It shares the first three bolts of The Reverend Mr. Black, which might be considered the crux, and then continues left up a diagnalling crack traverse to a sweet wide crack dihedral to a two bolt anchor with rappel gear. It might be considered a little dirty, but entertaining never the less. There are some outward inverted fist jams mixed with some crimpers and stemming for some fun and different type of climbing for The Dungeon.

Rampage

Start sitting under the obvious black streak. Pull steep but easy moves up monster jugs. Stem left and work a nice undercling sequence. Things begin to get thinner as you begin to exit the cave, presenting the crux. Head around the corner and mantle on blocky terrain to finish above the cave on its left side. 

  More of a traverse than anything, but one of the best easier problems in the Los Alamos Area. Like many routes at the Dungeon - great moves on questionable rock.

This thin and cruxy black wall route Walt and I just had to climb on because the upper face looked so nice. After weaving through some choss and a funky overlap on the bottom of the wall you'll get up to spot on the face that's pretty thin. Then it's over. 

  If you've done everything else at the dungeon you might as well do this one too... 

Begin up an interesting section on fractured rhyolite to a small ledge. Move up and left through a large scooped-out dish, then get some fun exposure as you make your way out and around the edge onto the face (crux). Continue up the positive face until the rock turns vertical; find the buckets and clip the chains.

This is the obviously washed black wall on the right side of the trail opposite the Main Wall, and also about fifty feet north of the Fin Wall, which is probably fifty feet north of Trash Tower.
