This is an eliminate of hobbit hole where you don’t use anything on the left wall of the cave (see beta photo). If you like a bit of pain and a lot of try hard, you’ll probably like this short little problem.

Short 3 move wonder. Sit start with a left hand on the good rail just to the left of the cave. Right hand on an ok undercling deeper in the cave. Bump right to a juggy awkward sidepull, do some foot shenanigans and you’re at the crux! Follow the crack to the top.

A nice spicy line up a sea of lichen. The holds are small, but they're all there. In my opinion, this is the best boulder problem in SLO county.

Climb the acute arete. Stay on the edge. Cool looking route, calling to be climbed.

Start as low as you can on the left-facing sidepull and haul yourself into a beautiful five foot stretch of finger-lickin' handjams.

Start on the arete using holds at chest level. Move up on a good pinch and either traverse out left and finish to the right of La Petite Fissure, or go directly up the arete (a harder variation). Surprisingly fun!

A near vertical face, 16 ft. tall, with tiny crimps and big moves with long reaches. Good, hard, and tech.

Next to the Crack that goes into an arete. At the bottom there is a diagonal crack. Start left hand on an under cling, right hand slightly higher up, next to the rock stuck in the same crack. Left foot on an obvious nice ledge, right foot on a small chip at the bottom of the crack. Everything right of the crack or on the block is off. Triangle pinch on right is on, obvious nice marked crimp. Then just right of the arete is a sloper and a drilled crack to the top. The corner is the nicest part to mantle.

A FALL IS DANGEROUS HERE PAD IS NECESSARY. SPOTTER NEEDED.

Start with right hand on a side pull/crimp; for your left if you’re under 6’ you may have to jump to a pocket about 8ft up. Smear a right foot at your knees in a scoop and move through jugs and straight up/right

on whatever you can.

Possibility in the Slater guide as “Behind the Oak” route with no grade felt like 3/4 to me

About 10 feet to the right of Peanuts, you'll see a prominent crack running up the west face of the boulder. Use the crack and the good holds to both the left and right to get to the moderate top out. Eliminations can be done to keep it interesting!

This line goes up the arete immediately left of Peanuts. Follow shallow dishes and small crimps above a blocky landing. This problem has some really fun movement worthy of an area classic.

Start with your left hand in the nostrils of this rock, right hand on a crimp. Left foot can find a teeny little shelf low and left leading into the Hobbit Hole, right foot can find a little dish near the ground in line with the crimp. Right hand bumps up to a sloping rail,work your way up and over.
