Start in a thin splitter, which soon peters out into some unique climbing past fixed kb's. A slabby traverse brings to the final crack that saves the hardest moves for last. Save a couple of your smallest cams for these last moves.

Another classic!

Afro Blue

The Great Divide

The Guillotine

Red Mamba

At the undercling, you may feel there is no hope for gear, reach out right and place a perfect #7 BD Nut. Continue up, hopping cracks and a couple slab moves past a bolt to yet another crack. Bear huggin' and stemming will bring you to a thin slightly overhung bolt protected face, with a mantle finish. Spicy.

Alternatively, you could join Afro Blue by traversing right at the upper crack, though the actual finish is *****.

The obvious line that splits the crag and finish's in a long dihedral. It's a great climb, but since it has a dirty start, the grade drops. There is a little bit of everything with this route, fingers, to some easy OW, to a fun corner crux finish. We found signs of life on this pitch, a mangy old bolt (not needed) below the final corner.

Two cracks of similar difficulty, the crux comes right off the ground. The left side variation is a little spicy and has a "death block" en route. I ripped callous's trying to remove this sucker, it moves, but won't come loose. The right side is well protected fun climbing with a OW traverse.

A 5.7 pitch leads to the top. You can either walk off or rap the tree to the anchors atop Red Mamba/Afro Blue.
