This is the right arete of the rock.  Looks like it was blatsted when they put the road in.  Holds are a little rough and there is a blast hole on top.  Maybe the easiest way off the boulder...

or hop off the back.

Start matched on the low jug, then move right 3 ft on crimps and  sidepulls to a good pinch then up the center of the face to a thin holds topout that has good feet. Good movement on solid rock (even though it is blasted).

A rare moderate sport route in Woodson.

We found this route entirely by chance (and definitely were not the bolt setters or first ascentists). The Kennedy Book alludes to a face here but does not indicate it was bolted. The 5.10 rating also comes from the topo provided in a photo. It felt like a 5.10a to me.

The first bolt is easy to clip one move off of the standing flake. The crux comes after the second bolt where microedging, faith, and a lack of hands gets you to the third bolt. Past that you are golden and the slab flattens. Fourth bolt is a breeze.

Walk off on climbers right.

Amazing arete that climbs nice and easy. Good feet and sharp arete make this quite enjoyable. It can be climbed on the left or right side, both are good. Left is better.

This is a roadside favorite.  As the name suggests, its a meaty little crack.  It is on the left side of the road on orange colored rock, just before Poison Oak Crack.  The blasted boulders before it, also on the left hand side of the road are fun bouldering also.

Overhanging feature into a cool arete. Interesting top out! Some heel toe cams may be useful.

Across the road from Hamburger Crack is a hidden corridor capped by a roof. From deep down inside the northwest end of the corridor, climb up a downward flaring chimney, past a #3 placement, and stem your way into the main corridor. After carefully placing small gear, hop into the horizontal crack (wild). Slither through the horizontal traverse out towards a 6' roof. The traverse is pretty darn unique, and pumpy at the end when it squeezes you out. Save some juice for the roof mantle!

The gear anchor is above the roof so you might as well go full value. The mantle is incredible, don't miss it by stepping off left.
