Start in the maw of the cave. Either jammed, hooked, or crimped. Work your way out and transition to a more lay-back slab portion of the problem. This climb is unique in that it has two distinct parts and styles (a roof problem and a slabby lay back). The crux is the transition out of the roof to the lay back, very easy to slip off. Cave portion has some dirty holds and stays wet after if rains.

Easy crack problem with an iffy landing. Start jammed and follow the viney crack up to the large flat block for the top out. 

Sit start at the base of the crack on a sidepull and the crack itself. Edges for feet can be found lower. Follow the crack up jamming as necessary or sinking into some incut jugs. The crux is pulling off of the sit start and moving your feet.This is also the preferred downclimb on this boulder. 

Start in a wide crack/gully at the main overlook. Work the diagonal seam up to the left. Sidepulls, underclings, and a few jams. Avoiding the back wall is the crux.

Felt like a classic to me start on the ledge in a crouched position and climb straight up on good cracks and Flakes till you reach the middle which is the crux. I got a high right heel and rocked up onto it grabbing the large jug and topping out slightly commiting but good landing I enjoyed it.

Start on an obvious edge with a high left foot. Go out left to a crimp then slap a sloper on the high right. Get feet up to the edge then from there just go up slightly committed up top

Solid splitter crack problem. Roughly 9 to 11 feet of crack with an easy to put. Slightly overhung crack with a flare at the bottom. Foot jams can be found by sinking into the flare but get easier as you move up. There are a few features outside the crack for feet.The landing on this climb is two tiered. The bottom tier is relatively flat but you could roll an ankle or slip into a crevasse. The second tier can be utilized for bailing. Falling onto this tier would hurt. There are other boulders around that would make this a rough problem to fall on if you take an unusual fall. Spotters mitigate this risk.

The main outcropping of boulders in this area. Typically overrun with tourists scrambling around. Parking can filk up during the summer months. There are less crowds in the mornings.
