Start right of the lieback crack and solo up to a scary top out.

Kind of hairball, but worth a look. Watch for loose holds, as this line doesn't get climbed often.

Ascend the face 20 feet or so left/uphill from the start of Achielle Larro, at a shallow crack.

This was rated 5.9 in the 1988 guidebook, and 5.10a in more recent books.

If you avoid the crack holds, the same line goes at around V1.

A fun lieback crack left of Coz Solo that finishes on Coz Solo

On the uphill corner of the boulder, right of Gray Face. There's a picture of this on the cover of the 1995 edition to the guidebook. Fun, committing moves up high...

This problem starts off under an overhang sit start; you're given a left-hand side pull nub and a right hand undercling. Suck it up and smack the SLOPEY arete with right hand. Takes lots of power to stick the first move (I found that the crux). Work your way up the slopey arete basically fighting to stay on until you reach the top and turn the corner.

Short, but somewhat difficult moves, topping out with your back in the tree branches (assuming nothing has changed -it's been a while since I've been there.

This Traverse is one of the best in the bay. Starts on the far right (if facing the rock) and traverses uphill. Finish in the massive hueco by the tree or continue straight up for full value and a spicy topout.

Stand start on the sloper, get a heel and mantle to get to the sloper up and left.

Sit start and climb the obvious overhang via dynamic moves. One of the top out holds is really sharp and might bite! Other than the sharp hold which keeps it from being a classic in my opinion, it's a great line!

Balancy Arete with a little of a psychological factor. Try not to barn-door.

Somewhat high, with a bad landing. The crux is mostly in your head... Watch for loose holds, as this line doesn't get done very often.

The burly ending to the "Klinghoffer Traverse". Stand start matched on the sloper pocket and dyno to the hueco jug. Move up to the horn and pinchable fin. From here grab a small crimp or undercling with your left hand and do a scary dyno to the obvious sloper jug. Might want to hang a pad from the tree in the landing zone!

Ascends the face ~15' right of Achielle Larro (opposite from Center Crack). Straight up through good holds. This is a little bit highball, but fun.

Left of Abu Nidal Cranks A Rad, on the same boulder. Committing moves with an awkward landing.

start on a arete pinch hold for the right hand and a low left hand undercling and move through the obvious holds to a jug. Top out around the corners or reach over the moss to the back of the boulder and top out. Fun little problem with a ton of moss at the top. Good warmup! Note: there are 3 different top out options.
