Ascend good, thin, face climbing up the tallest part of the crag. After leaving the horizontal, the climbing is fairly sustained on small holds. There are interesting topout moves as well.

Move left towards the obvious triangular pod, get established with some difficulty, then pull the roof to the face at the top.

Start with matched hands on a diagonal jug, then make moves past a horizontal crack to gain an excellent thin face. If this was longer, it would easily get another star. The mini-ledge is OFF!

Pull the roof in the center of the crag on positive crimps and a good jug. Then follow the easier face to the top.

Climb the obvious crack/flake feature till it ends. Then face climb past a horizontal break to the top. This makes a fun solo with the crux after the flake.

Start under the roof to the left of Flake Route, and follow the broken corner. This is a fun, easy solo or can be decent for kids learning the ropes.

Scramble Ramble is an easy solo or a fun beginner climb. Do a short 5.4 ish move off the ground, and scramble up easy rock to the top.

This is an easy crack with a few fun layback moves. It is recommended for beginners.

 I will be cleaning soon to eliminate the remaining choss.

This is a small, shaded crag with a few nice routes. It is 25 feet high at it tallest point with a variety of face climbs and some interesting features. The crag is good as an after work stop due to its short approach and proximity to route 495. Big pine trees on top of the crag to anchor off of but bring a good amount of static rope cause the trees are at least 20 feet from the edge of the cliff.
