One of the best pitches at the grade at Moolack.  Powerful off the ground, this one will stay on you.  This climb has one of the coolest no-hands stances I've ever found.  Originally climbed in two pitches, Elements is easily linked to the trees.

Elements of Style

Perverts in Paradise

Geek on a Leash

Bag Full of Hammers

Dangerous Toys

X Marks the Spot

Case of the Blues

If this thing got climbed frequently enough to stay clean, it would be easily be a four-star route. It's worth brushing the dust off the top prior to climbing. Start just left of Elements of Style and follow the main crack system up and right to ledgy terrain at mid-height. Belay here (or, if you're feeling chipper, keep going) and then punch it up the beautiful splitter to the top.

The last 60' is one of the best 5.10 corners in the state.  Start by munging through some easy foliage aiming for a left-leaning splitter with a pod.  Pull an off-balance sequence to get past the pod and savor the hero climbing above.  If you're not linking the route into one pitch, look for a belay here.  (before you pull up and left around a small bulge)  Otherwise, runner your gear well and keep climbing up into the gorgeous and sustained left facing wide-hands corner.

One of the test-pieces at the crag and (to my knowledge) yet to see a second ascent.  Bouldery and mega classic.  The first pitch is fun and pumpy following a beautiful dihedral (the top can get choked with pine needles, so it's worth rapping over with a nut tool) up to the treed ledge.  Above that is a short and fierce crux to a good stance and optional belay.  From here it's 5.10 to the top.

This is a variation to Dangerous Toys.  At half-height, find your way left to the hanging splitter and take it to the top.  Can be linked in one pitch with attention to detail.

The crux can seep in the spring, and, if the route hasn't seen traffic,  it can get a little licheny, but otherwise this route is super classic.

Exquisite! Delicate and thought-provoking, this line is a true gem. X has perfect rock from bottom to top, is wonderfully varied, and 'just' protects. Begin in a beautiful, black left facing corner and follow the crack to the top. Above the slab at mid-height, the line leaves the corner and climbs the arete on the right for ~20'. (the corner itself hasn't been freed, but will likely go at 12/12+) After the difficulties ease, it's possible to belay at a good ledge above the roof. X can also can be done in one pitch with the foresight to runner your gear correctly.

This is wall is home to one of the highest concentration of classic lines at Moolack.  Checking in at an even 60m, all of the routes can be done in one long, pumpy pitch, but are frequently broken up.  Look for an relatively open (but still treed) talus slope at the base, stacks of beautiful corners and splitters, and a prominent snag sticking off of the top of the cliff.  There's a 4th class ledge system below Case, Elements, and X that has to be navigated if going ground up.
