Cow Trails II angles up a ramping series of ledges rightward until a flake on the left separates from the wall and one can layback up it to the anchors.

Steep face on mostly big holds but with lot rests.

Pyramid Power above the ledge looks more a crack climb for a brief bit but the thin cracks useful lieback lips are brief and the crux is above that deceptive zone.

Pyramid Scheme is a sustained difficulty vertical face of crimps and side pulls.

Sort your way through a large group of holds choosing those that match your knickknack needs.  Is the climbing easier to the left of the bolts or follow the bolt line,  maybe right?

Escher Stair is about a dead vertical wall with 3 stair step roofs.  Excellent moves.

High Step Transformer needs some high stepping to transform your location to easier standing than under the bulge.

Mostly steep beautiful face climb above the 2 crack moves with very positive pinches and the rest is tight crimps.

A low short steep face with some big holds and some little holds.

The route moves through the steeper face above the left corner of the ledge and then angles slightly right going "straight" to a mild overhanging head wall where a final bolt protects the traverse upward and to the left to the anchor finish.

Ally Ally Oxen Free is the long route on the right slab which is just left of the grotto area. Climb the outside of the slippery low corner and over some blocks to the bottom of the right slab.  On the face some of the holds may be hiding,

Hedging follows a line under a buff colored roof and exits to the right on easier face and then moves left to the low anchors that server the other 4 routes to the left.

Fun Hog is a 90 feet route on the Center Slab. It's upper half is steep with large holds and some arete like moves. The start is the left facing corner but it can be climbed by stemming, crack or face moves to the ledge. Next is a chimney to negotiate and then you are on the long face.

Confronting Anxiety angles up and right into a shallow crack system but is mostly mostly edges for holds and shares the anchor with the 2 routes to the right.

Drama for SNAGS first encounters a short section of in your face steep crimp climbing, then travels an easy section of mild mannered moves, but then next tests your manner of interaction with the need for careful countering, and then it off to easy loping.

Field Effect Switch requires crossing the threshold of a bulge with poor feet and using holds within lunge reach.  Once on this big hold the route moves right over steep turf and then back left to anchors.

Pulling the Trust Plug is easy face climbing on both ends with the hard crack up move being passing over the chockstone.

Doing A Stroll Through Time will cover some Mississippian age limestone with chert crystals for holds, and after you overtake some fossil snails you get to the overhanging corner that is readily stemmed and some big holds to exit to the rap bolts.

Shotgun Love is a fun line near the left side of the the Center Slab.  The route is not very straight at the bottom because it incorporates the easiest sections in the locale of the upper easy crack and face. Rests are frequent on this line along with big holds.

Harold is Banging Something is an overhanging route with crack holds and some surprising burly pulls.

Auctioneer Barmaid has a short steep section and then moves nearer and meets the route to the left.
