The pockets may be drilled, but they're so good! This route follows a line of deep two finger and 3 finger pockets up an overhanging wall. Some dynamic moves with a cool no hands rest in the middle!! The crux, however, involves a couple good crimps and a rad heel or toe hook. Clipping the anchors might very well be the red point crux. Highly Recommend this one!

Sort of a one move wander. Boulder up through the first couple bolts and get set up on a SHITTY/SHARP right hand crimp and lock off to a slopy crimp. the next couple of moves are similar on decent crimps. This little boulder problem is probably V5ish. Easy finish.

This route starts with sharp crimps and slopy heel hooks. Moves into a section of all deep pockets.. but be sure to pick the right ones!! Then you move up through some cool edges where you can get a good, high foot. From here you LUNGE for a sloping rail that moves vertically up the face for about 9 feet. And if you manage to stay on this rail of doom, overcome the pump to the anchors for a great finish!!

Technical climbing that requires a combination of some lock-off strength and a great deal of balance. Don't forget to stick-clip!!
