Bust a nut, or an ovary, making hard as hell moves at the very beginning. Once the initial pain is  over fight the pump through the black rock and claim the onsight. 

  Kinda reminds me the EBM route with more pump and less pockets. If you are a fan of EBM, you will kick yourself if you don't enlist and prove yourself worthy.

Wet Dream/Wet Banana

For those who want a really good 5.12 minus experience and want no one else around to watch you flail, or hear you scream, look no further. 

  Starts in some overhung, blonde rock with micro-roofs to navigate over holds that are hard as hell to get a handle on. Those that survive the beginning struggle will find tricky moves needed to navigate your way to the top.

Ya ever walk by these two routes and wonder, "What the hell?" 

  Somebody needs to send these things, Goddammit!

An insignificant -but awesome- climbing area found on the far right side of The Sunshine Wall. No one goes here but me, and I usually go here, alone, to collect my thoughts. If I could find  a climbing partner, who likes to hike...and  doesn't mind spending the day with just me and only me...I could be climbing some pretty rad routes a lot more than just once every other blue moon. But alas, I fear that old age will kill me before I get that chance. So, if anyone has my number...give me a call...before I turn  one hundred  years old...because, that's  when the grim reaper and I have a date to climb that final set of jugs to the anchors  in the sky. So, if anyone else  out there is realizing that they have less days to climb than more...get right with God, and then go climb at The Grotto!
