A fun, techy face route, that is tainted by bird shit.

This rig is pretty wild, featuring a mega steep section of rock. Climb up a large 5.8 dihedral with easy stemming for five bolts, passing a large block wedged in the corner. The sixth, seventh, and eighth bolts have fixed draws and climb through extremely steep rock to a crux move above the eighth bolt. The last three bolts climb through slightly overhanging 5.11 territory to a triple bolt, triple steel biner lower off.

Note: The half ton block wedged half way up the dihedral was found to be solid. However, its' precarious appearance gave much pause. After a hardy struggle trying to remove it with a large crowbar to no avail, I decided to secure it with two large bolts and a short piece of high test chain.

Climbs the prominent flake up the middle of the east wall. Decent climbing, but the flake does not inspire a ton of confidence. Felt oddly alpine considering the location.

Face climb to the right of the big flake that is the route "Bones".

This route climbs the arete on the SW side of the corridor. It's pretty stiff as a 9 and has a heady finish, but goes at the grade if you find the moves.

Climbs face to a seam on the east wall to the left of the big flake.
