Fast Lap Around the Track

Starts on sidepull and gaston holds at the same height. Difficult start to big shelf followed by a licheny traverse into the upper part of Safe Cracker. An alternative finish involves a lower hand traverse across an obvious rail to the Safe Cracker finish. 

A fall might be fatal (and would certainly result in injury) due to the obvious ledge and jutting triangular chunk of rock at the bottom.  About 5.7. 

Slightly overhanging start up crack/seam to easier finish on big holds.

Up gray streak, then traverse left to finish as for RCMC. 

Into Battle start to the face on the right side of the arete.

The standard approach/exit.  About 5.5.  

Don’t fall, or you may smack the small, sloping ledge on the way down. 

R. of Welcome to Woodruff. Climb sidepull features and jugs, joining W to W at the top. About 5.8. 

Short little problem on the gently overhanging face leading to the upper part of Staircase.

Curse Traverse to Battleship.  Unrepeated, so the grade is unconfirmed. 

Spectacular polychromatic face to arete finish.

This has got to be one of the wildest V1 boulder problems in existence. See your life flash before your eyes as you dyno to a perfect jug 24 feet off the deck; then top out at 31 feet.  Miss the dyno or botch the moves above, and you might be headed to the emergency room.

Start 4 feet left of the arete, then tackle the bulging upper arete.  

Left to right traverse on obvious rail a few feet higher than Curse Traverse. Ends on big holds below the bulging arête.  Downclimb/jump off, or reverse direction and return to the start.

Face just right of fallen blocks. Way fun.  

Murderously difficult left to right traverse on obvious low crack/seam. Starts just left of the black streak, rounds the arete and finishes on the shoulder-height ledge. Unrepeated, so the grade is unconfirmed.  

Easier variation of Ambulance Speed Dial which is arguably of higher quality because it is far more uniform in its grade from bottom to top. Starts on jugs just left of choss rock. About as proud as V0 could possibly be, at least in the obscurity of the eastern Arizona desert.

Up the clean face a few feet right of Mission Irrational.  

Left to right traverse on obvious rail higher than the Hearse Traverse.  Ends on big holds below the bulging arete.  Downclimb/jump off or reverse direction and return to the start (increasing the pump factor and grade.)

Steep slab, finishing on obvious horizontal. Traverse left and downclimb easy rock to get down. Topping out isn’t recommended due to death blocks.

Do the Into Battle start, then lieback the offwidth just left of the bulging arete. 

Nice arete. Just don’t fall, or you could crash into the starting holds.    

Up the black swath. Left arete is obviously off. Get ready to crimp a couple of credit cards while high off the ground.  

Do one of the easy traverses out and the other easy traverse back. You may be surprised by how pumpy it gets to run fast laps around the track.  

Highball bouldering on a sandstone cliff band in the middle of nowhere. Bolts for TR rehearsal are available atop most problems. Bring a variety of long slings for setting up TRs. IF IN DOUBT, TR UNTIL YOU ARE SUPER-SOLID AND CAN TOP OUT CONFIDENTLY.  DO NOT assume that the grades are accurate and/or that you’re going to be able to walk up to a given problem, throw your pads down, and make an unrehearsed ascent without trauma. Despite extensive cleaning efforts, the problems may still feature fragile/loose rock, lichen, and windblown dirt.  Despite extensive cleaning, many of the top outs may still feature fragile/loose rock, dirt, and gravel.  Be cautious; avoid catastrophe.  Although the landings are generally pretty good, your working assumption should be that almost every listed problem has an R or X rating due to height; several of these problems top out at more than 30 feet. Falling from the finishing moves would assuredly result in injury; maybe death.  Bear in mind that this is soft sandstone.  All soft rock admonitions apply. Don't climb for 48 hours after rain.  Don't assume that too-good-to-be-true flakes are going to stay in place.  Having said all that, climbing at this area can be a lot of fun.  

 This area is best in the spring and fall.  Winter is typically too cold, as the cliff is in the shade for most of the day.  From May through September, the cliff is in the sun for most of the day, and is simply too hot.  In windy weather, the stench you'll smell in the air is coming from a nearby pig farm. Consider boycotting pork.
