Right side of the Dead Zone.  Start just left of the left hand arête.  The crux is the first couple of moves with a hard right hand side pull mono up to small crimps and eventually to a good pinch.  From here climb up killer stone on steep jugs.  Would be a three star 12b if not for the start.

This is the King Line of the Dead Zone.  It starts directly below a blunt arete on the left side of the wall.  Start with a difficult boulder problem for a couple of bolts up a clean, sparsely featured face.  Next climb the pumpy arete on decent holds with big reaches. This climb was originally bolted by Todd Skinner in the early 2000s.

The right arête. Start with the first two bolts stick clipped, as there is no clipping hold for bolt 2 and you could deck if you fall here.  Interesting arête climbing with a perplexing but cool crux between bolts 5 and 7.  This route is as good as any in the Lander area and on bullet proof rock.

Left most route on this wall.  It follows a crack for its entirety.  Sustained and pretty cool.

Rightmost route on this section of cliff.  Climb up a large boulder to the right of the arête.  The first clip is a little bit high and a stick clip is encouraged.  Climb the slab for 4 bolts then transition to the steep wall on the right side of the arête.  This route shares anchors with the route to its left.

Left side of the Dead Zone. This route starts on a crack and then traverses at bolt four to climb a blunt arête. It is a link up. The crux is between bolts six and eight with sequential movement on crimps and pockets. The straight up line, called Day of the Dead, adds a v9 crux start that raises the grade to 14a.
