Challenging flared pockets make for some tenuous moves (including a hand jam and an excellent deadpoint. The top gets juggy with very high quality movement.

Climb a few tiers to a roof pull into an overhanging prow with excellent jugs and a pumpy crux. Those fortunate enough to climb it agree this is the best limestone 5.10 in NW California.

What a strange route… it starts with a burly little cave and transitions all the way down to 3rd class, before a 5.4 finish on mega-fluted limestone. Links into Raw Dog at the 7th bolt.

Alternating easy and hard sections lead to a ledge below a burly bulge crux. Enjoy a few more big moves and big jugs to the top.

After the first three bolts of Cream Of The Crop, fork right onto a small prow, then decipher a super bouldery crux pulling past the 8th bolt.  Excellent variety!

Steep jugs on fluted limestone lead to gully with stemming over occasional blocks. It just keeps going. This was the first route on the wall and done as an onsight gear lead.

Needs a bit of cleaning/freshening-up after the winter.

Big jugs lead to a short stemming crux out a roof. Great exposure!! Shares the first bolt with the 11d, then heads slightly left. Very comfortably bolted.

Jam a hand crack up a steep trough. Merges into Ramblin’ Man at the 3rd class ridge.
