The crux is a thin section about halfway, and the rock is good.

Start just left of Worthwhile Pile and climb up and left following thin seams up to a bolt, then move left (crux) to a crack that leads to the top.

This is probably the best route on Worthwhile Pile.

A fun route when combined with others on the wall.

Go up a handcrack and then go up and right to another crack.

The next crack right of Worthless Bile. Follow up two triangle pods up to grove with cracks topping out just left of Holden On.

A little funky looking when staring up from the bottom as far as protection goes, but if solid at the grade should be no problem. It had me thinking though.

On the far left side of the wall is a left leaning crack that leads into a small left facing book. The crux is exiting the book to jugs.

Easy moves up to a ramp lead to the crux. Protected by a bolt, thin crimps and seams bring you to a welcomed flake to the top. Move fast or get flamed!

This route needs to be climbed more often so it will clean up. Loose rock at the bottom, but clean rock at the top with the crux overcoming a bulge halfway up. Although some feel it goes at 5.8, I think it is closer to 5.5.
