The Classroom is an awesome, little warm-up climb to the far right of the Little Five. It is a great first lead climb.

Begin as with

Elephant Shrew

, but climb the overhang 6 feet right of the 2nd bolt on

Elephant Shrew

and up the blank face joining

Buffalo Weaver

higher up.

Although very short, it may have the best climbing moves (briefly) of the Little Five routes.

A hard move is encountered at the 2nd & 3rd bolt. Continue up, and join

Upper Class

at the last bolt.

This is a great introduction to easy climbing. It has the easiest climbing access to Sun Tan Ledge.

This makes for a convenient direct approach to the left side of the Big Five routes. It is named for the rabbits my daughter raises.

Climb over a dead tree and through a small, black roof.

Rhino Beetle has easy climbing on good rock.

A Family Affair is a fine route marred only by big holds and some easy climbing.

This was bolted for my grandchildren to do their first leads on a first ascent.

The FA was done with 4 pieces of gear by a 57-year old man with a torn A1 finger tendon in 39 degree weather wearing tennis shoes and leather gloves.

This is the hardest of the Little Five routes. You may have to pause at one point. It is a great introduction to easy slab climbing.
