5 |
Local Vortex The wall just right of the two cracks. Very technical. | E3 6b | |
6 |
Overslapped Probably the best route on this bit of wall; connecting a series of small jugs before trending left to a lower-off. | 1 Stars Technical | 7a |

16 |
Open Verdict A hard start and difficult moves above before finishing back left past a crack. | 1 Stars Crimpy | 7a+ |
17 |

18 |
The Fifth Amendment The front of the pillar has a tricky start and some decent moves. | Technical Crimpy | 6c |
19 |
Waldo Winchester The large vegetated corner is best left alone. | VS 4a | |

21 |
More Than Somewhat The right-hand side of the block in the corner to a crack. Very poor. | S | |
22 |

28 |
Seldom Seen The long corner looks dreadful. | VS 4c | |
29 |
In the Stox A short and technical wall climb. | 1 Stars Technical | 7a |
30 |
