If you enjoy old, rusty bolts, you missed your opportunity in Rattlesnake Canyon. All of the old bolts have been replaced one-for-one with shiny 1/2" Rawls. Just don't expect tightly-bolted sport routes--the bolt spacing is still old-school.

Alex Degolia leads the stunning second pitch of Fun in the Sun, in Rattlesnake Canyon. Patrick Callery belays. Anacapa in the distance.
This face, in between The Labrador Ate the Cupcakes and Ugly Duckling has been bolted with a rap station at the top of the face with the dark streak. It looks short, but tough. The lower section is slightly overhanging, making for a tough start.
View from the saddle on the way to the egg.
View from the very base of the crag, where the climbers trail meets the rock.
