SDS made a bit awkward by the platform and vicinity of the stream. As long as you have a pad it is not as awkward. Use side pull and strange jug for start holds and move up through awesome features and finish on sloped ledge. Avoid mossy dihedral feature

The crux is probably the start? The sloppy edge/lip hold is super cool.

Stand start with hands on obvious holds, smear on slab and follow semi-jug holds to the top.

THe crux is right at the start where the crack is more of a seam more up into easier teritory and get some pro in.  Then move on to easier climbing to the top.  Can be bouldered at V0 R/X

SDS on broken sloped rail with feet on small rails. Due to the unique nature or this rock I did not use the rock protrusion just to the left for feet, it is more like the ground than part of the wall and much more fun without it. Move up through big holds and top out on sloped ledge. Cool movement and really awesome features and rock.

Start of the right side of the sloppy boulder with left hand on decent hold and right hand on sidepull and trend left to the super cool little seam and then straight up. This boulder has some of the coolest features and texture I have seen, but it's sadly to featured to put out anything super awesome.

Climb straight up the arete between Lucy's Ladder and Gitchigumi Groupie

Traverse left starting on the far right side of the cliff on a ledge just above your head.  move through a tricky sequence to get around the arete and into the crux.  the begining is tough until you figure out the right sequence.

Around the corner to the left of Lucy's Ladder. Start on obvious ledge, to side pull, to double side pulls, and up to crimps to top.

Pretty fun little climb and I am no crack climber! I ended up doing a fun little bump/toss for the lip and that was the crux I thought.

Left hand on good hold with right hand on big hold/sidepull. Trend up and left and top out straight up. When you get to the top you can just top out to the right but going straight up gives a nice little mantel which is fun. If cleaned and a base is built above the water this line could start lower by the water level. We're working on it...

Super fun climb with the crux on the second half of the climb after you get the gaston pinch hold. Pretty tall and pretty scary, but a great landing is built. I did it solo since there really isn't room for a spotter anyways.

Rock outcropping by the creek, directly to the left of the path down to the creek.
