Crux near the end. This climb is nicely varied and one of my favorites in the Gorge.

Climb a steep and exposed slab perched high on the wall.

A wicked sweet boulder problem on a rope.  Make long moves off decent sidepulls.  Very fun, but very short.  About 8-10 moves total.

Might not want to blow any clips, the talus beckons.

A obscurity for certain, more a boulder problem than a route, but total fun.

Fun steep continuous climbing just right of the edge of the buttress.

Direct start is 10a as stated in the guide. Stemming the dihedral on the immediate right makes the start a lot easier 5.8/5.9.  Runnout to the anchor is easy if you want to skip bringing a piece.

Interesting steep climbing finally relents to a pocketed slab.

In an old guide this route was rated 10d.  Next to the route I wrote hard for 10d.  Now the guide calls it 10c....ouch.  I went back after ticking many 11s in the Gorge years later and am still thinking 11a.  Unfortunately after the crux the difficulty eases way off then finishes with a very easy slab.
