A nice warm up for the harder routes. A couple of overhanging moves gets you to easier ground and the chains.

Another good warmup. Overhanging jug haul on nice rock.

A few hard crimp moves in the middle of the route and a fairly difficult clip off an insecure fingerlock and this one is over. Make sure your belayer is paying attention on this clip. If you come off with the rope in your hand you could hit the ledge behind you. The varnished edges at the top look like they could break at any time. Its probably not a good idea to climb this one if it's at all wet.

The bottom of this route is quite stellar. However the top is slopey and a bit rotten and detracts from the climb.

The rock down low on this one is a bit suspect looking but seemed solid enough. Hard overhanging crimps and dynos will get you to a difficult clip on the 4th bolt. Then if you're short you will have one more strenous long move to pull over the bulge to easier ground. This move may be easier if you are over 6' as you will be able to reach past the last crux move.

Another nice route similar to Casino but steeper. Thankfully the holds are bigger.

Hard moves off the ground especially if you're short lead to easier ground in the middle and top.

The crux of this climb is probably the approach where there is an obvious, slanted chimney that goes up to a ledge with a very sappy tree. Then you would continue up some chossy stuff until you reach the anchors. The route is often used as an approuch to the Oasis.

Lean across the belay pad and clip the first bolt. Better yet, bring a stick clip so you don't risk taking a 20 footer into a jumble of rocks!  After the clip, step over and pull a couple of 5.8 moves, then slab to the anchors.

Probably the best route on the cliff. Overhanging crimps will get you to the pumpy finish. Watch for a bit of rotten rock right before the first clip.

The finger crack that is uphill on the east side of the gully, to the left of Pads Passion. Ends up and right at an anchor.

Leftmost route on the left side of the corridor.  Anchors available for the belayer.  Might be useful if you have a larger climber or if you blow the first clip.

This nice sport area has a good mixture of 5.10 to 5.12 climbing. It is a bit involved to get to and entails some 4 class climbing. It should be more popular than it is.
