A very fun route up a steep arete.  Good hands and feet.  Route starts out steep to an overhanging bulge.  The route eases off after the bulge.  Can be made easier by staying right on the upper portion of the route.  If seconds will be toproping, draws should be left for directionals, as a fall over the side could be possible.

Starts rather uninteresting. The crux earns the route's stars and is its name sake, which has you bear hugging a vertical wall. Tricky bolt clip.

Good route with two solid 5.10 moves. The first is over a bulge and the second near the top.

Slightly tricky start to easier climbing, then blocky bulge to pull past.  Easier climbing the rest of the way.  Pulling the block is the crux.  Clipping the bolt above the block/roof is very awkward.  Three out of three climbers failed to find an easy way to do it.  You have to climb pretty much above the block to get a good stance.  This sketchy clip is the only thing preventing a second star.  Otherwise the route is very fun.  Watch for the little cactus!

This is the rightmost of the crags.  Easily identified by the tunnel through to the other side.  Routes run from 5.9 to 5.10.  The rock has a definite green patina.
