This is an enjoyable climb that ascends the right side of the dugout.  It is comparable in difficulty to the Middle Face.  However, the anchors are inexplicably located about ten feet past the logical end of the route, requiring the use of a rusty upward driven bolt to aid to the anchors.  The sandy boulder problem this bolt protects is probably possible (grade is an estimate), but not nearly as quality as the rest of the route.  A lower set of anchors would decrease the grade to about 11D and increase the overall quality.

Several bolts of pumpy pocket climbing leads to a mediocre rest.  The crux is moving past the final bolt to the anchors and is difficult to read.

Work along the left side of the grooved arete using a variety of holds on solid stone.  A fun climb that's more challenging than it appears from the ground.  If reach is an issue for certain sections, climbing towards the gully will yield a way around.

5.9 climbing to crux move at the roof when traversing right to the anchors on Middle Face. Very exposed move, and has potential for pendulum swing into opposite wall. Not sure if anyone has climbed this route before. When traversing I knocked off a large rock that almost hit my belayer.

Climb the tricky water runnel up to a roof.  Do some creative stemming to pull the roof and reach the anchors.

These climbs are capped by a large roof, making them better candidates for wet weather.  They also tend to be pretty sandy.  Unfortunately, no names or FA info is known on these routes.
