Great sloper holds for the first two bolts, then some horizontal cracks. Toward the top there are great flakes on the arete, or stay on the face, or do both and slap your body across the rock like a wet rag.

Starting in the corridor between the two pinnacles, this is the crack on the opposite wall of Cracksters Unite going up the upper pinnacle.  Near the top of the crack step left onto the steep upper face for a crux over thin but good patina edges past two bolts.  Chain anchor.  Fun climb, changes character entirely mid-route.

Starts on the south end of the southeast rock.  It's the easily recognizable OW to handcrack that starts on a pedestal 8 feet up.

Getting to the base of the crack is the hardest part.  You can climb up either side of the block, and you might also be able to traverse in from the base of the 5.11 offwidth to the left.  From there climb the wide crack formed by the flake up to the finger/hand crack.

Thin hands crack followed by a traverse, then up the south arete to the top. Two anchors to choose from. As the Bishop guide indicates, you can chimney up a ways to a good stance before pulling into the crack, but the direct start is good climbing on solid jams. A little harder, maybe 5.9 if you don't use the opposite wall.

The right bolt line on the northeast face of the upper pinnacle.  thin slabby start to easier climbing.  You can clip the last bolt from the crack/ledge of Nightcrawler before stepping onto the upper slab, gear not really needed.

The crack to face on the north end of the NW rock.  The Bishop guidebook gives a grade of 5.7, but the start is probably harder the shorter you are.  climb the vegetated crack, clip the last bolt on Mopy, then to the top.  Two rap anchors to choose from.
