Considered the warm-up of the area. Starts in the middle of a slab just uphill from the large landing. It is a bit tricky just getting on the slab but eases quick.

Follow the bolts up the easy stuff until the wall gets steep. From here the route Drain (.12b) cuts left, Mutilation goes right.

There are some big rests between some thinner, technical stuff on this journey to one more final (#$*&@$#%) challenge.

None of the moves are really that hard, but they just keep coming at you on a route that never seems to end. A harder version of Mutilation. From the 5th bolt on M. cut left on head up some obvious features for a while. You will get a pretty good rest at 2/3 height. From here look to move back right a smidge into some frustrating small pockets and fight the exhaustion to the chain.

Many climbers first .12c! Get up to the higher cave and chill on the big platform. From here several obvious large holes lead up and right to a mostly vertical headwall. A bit bouldery, but fantastic!

There used to be a tree marking the start, but it has somehow vanished (elves?).

On the leftish side of the wall there is a very steep white wall with several .13's on it.

F-Away starts on a weird rib (belayer sits on) just left of this. There are sometimes fixed draws at the crux.

So-so rock leads to a rest just before the overhanging section starts.

Some harder moves lead to another rest that is less mello. A sometimes present long draw gets clipped here and you move into the crux which involves a long stab to the left for a kinda-hidden crimper. Endure through the pump at the top and you got it!

Belay on a small ledge. Move straight up off of large jug into crimpy sequence which leads into an undercling. Several sweet moves puts you in a juggy side-pull. move up one move, then break right into crimps and two underclings. Top-out is no "gimme".
