| This is a really fun route that can be a great warm up! It starts on a simple corner that turns left and up past three bolts to the right facing dihedral where the crack starts. Many varied techniques are required. You can rap from the chains and check out the much harder "Curious George" route just left. |

| Great line that climbs much better than it looks. Skip the 2nd bolt, clip the 3rd long and have your belayer unclip the first one to limit rope drag. From there a set of cams from .5 to #4 gets you to the top. |
