This stellar route follows the pumpy, steep red face up the north side of The Laboratory followed by a tricky move to surmount the bulge to reach the anchors.

Its anchor is shared with Breaking Trad and

Beaker

to the right.

This route is a great warm-up and gets steadily harder as you climb.

This route is second from the right and climbs the short face up three bolts to a shared anchor. Easy, short climbing makes for a decent warm-up for the other climbs at The Laboratory.

This makes for a great beginner lead and worthwhile if you've brought a rack for Breaking Trad (great climb) or climbs at the nearby Imitation Wall. Climb up the semi-wide crack just left of

O

and right of Diatomic. A final mantel leads to the chains for Diatomic, and use those chains to descend.

Beaker is an excellent route that trends slightly left up the large huecos followed by some tricky moves up top to the anchor.

There are more huecos here! Climb the arete using multiple clusters of huecos to reach some longer moves on chickenheads to work past the lip. Be careful not to get pulled right on this one into the corner and miss the crux.

This very short route is the first route you see after the short scramble up to The Laboratory. This route makes for a decent warm-up for other routes here, but it's nothing to write home about.
