Root for Me

Start is crux although the top is a little in your face as well.

This is a great route! A sequential, powerful start leads to a surprise ending.

Bouldery start to a insecure slabby finish.

Long moves lead to a good rest before run to the top.

Beginning on some small pockets, crimp your way up this the route on tiny holds with some very physical moves to some slightly overhanging chains.

Thin face to a tricky bulge then traverse to SWW anchors.

Undercling an arching crack to under roof. Traverse right to a bolt. Placing protection can be strenuous but crack eats up cams. Clip bolt and pull roof using crack. Mixed route.

Chossy start to stopper crux at 2nd bolt.  Find relief on small horizontal seems.  Follow crack up to anchors.

Classic route. Begin on jugs to a technical middle section. Watch out for the run-out between the first & second bolt as there is ground fall potential. If you can pull the bottom moves though, the middle should be no problem. 

Nice pockets and features at the bottom lead to a blank middle section crux where tiny crimps and good balance are needed to get further up the wall.

Recycler to 3rd bolt, move right on side-pulls and knee bar to clip 4th. Gain blunt arete using fierce pockets.  Clip 5th chest high then be rewarded with fantastic pockets at the roof.

Stick clip high first bolt. Figure out crux, Take a break at the  2nd clip before the exciting finish.

Start on pockets off cheater stone. Hanging start. Make use of good pockets and small edges to anchors up and right.

Starts under first bolt and traverse left briefly into Root for Me. Clip 2nd bolt and trend up right to anchors. It is believed this route was bolted by Mike Johnson in the late 80s.

Pull through the start of Recyclable Stone, then continue straight up the concave face using small edges and side-pulls.Finish at Recyclable Stone anchors.

This route begins in the obvious off width and continues up to a flaring layback crack. Use anchors of Trash Talk

Start below the bolts on "She Keeps It on the Mantel". Boulder up and into the crack. Follow the crack up and right using secure jams to gain the right facing flake. Continue up to the first roof moving out left to gain a large crack up to the second roof. Move left to clip the third bolt continuing to the anchors on "She Keeps It on the Mantel".

Stick clip second bolt. Campus till you gain feet. Shake out at big ledge and fire through crux. Clipping anchors can be interesting if you choose wrong hold to clip from.

Delicately balance and crimp your way up hidden holds to the roof and figure out how to clip anchors.

1 bolt protects a hard to protect start and 1 bolt is up top to protect traverse to anchors. Climb crack in between. This route takes nuts and cams galore. It is a very good route for beginning tradsters comfortable at this grade.

Moderate face leads to a thin crack below big ledges. 

Rumored to be the first route bolted in Springfield in the early 90s. Look for 3 stacked roofs with several fixed draws.

One set of anchors with 3 different starts. .

Thin face moves to overhang crux. The 2nd bolt is too dicey to clip. I would haul up a stick clip until I come up with something better. The run to anchors from 2nd bolt is 5.5ish.

Start off cheater stone on two shallow pockets. Campus up to two hand ledge and use pockets and small edges to gain the face. A strenuous clip leads to the crux and then easier climbing up top.

Begin climbing the crack for 20 feet on good holds and good feet. Beware of the loose blocks towards the middle of the crack while placing gear. Head right for the chains at the top of the crack.

Classic route. Begin on some moderate moves with some tricky feet. Continue through the crux as it becomes slightly overhung. Be sure to take advantage of the dyno up top, as this is what makes the route so good! This route stays fairly dry after a rain... except for one key spot (which explains the name).

Begin on small crimps with technical moves. Climb through several bolts to reach much easier climbing towards the top of the wall.

Using consecutive underclings and precise foot work, climb your way to a blind finish.

Great route! Sustained route to great finish.

Great moderate route with a crux that makes you think about half way up. Since it is a brand new route, it is a little dirty towards the top, but that should cleanup with more climbers on the wall.

Probably want to stick clip 2nd bolt, or be REALLY strong. Originally intentioned to stay left thru micro edges as Man With a Beard.It can be done by trending right on bigger holds as The Pinch.

The start is not really in line with the rest of the routes difficulty, but its a good one nonetheless. Utilize the crack, balance up and over a few ledges and clip anchors

The first area on the right as you enter the gorge from the main stairwell. Nowhere (5.10+) is the first route you'll reach as you cross the rock bridge that goes along the wall before going all the way down the stairs.
