Climb the face/notch to the large ledge, then up over some bulges (crux) to the chains.

Crimpy face moves with some intermittent cracks, to a large ledge, to another short face of thin face climbing.

Climb the rail or climb the face for full value.

Crux seemed to be down low, and a bit awkward. Clipping the first bolt can be a tad sketchy, as the footholds you stand on at first are very, very loose.

Use caution in the belay area/first half of this climb. Lots of loose rock.

Descent:

Rappel route.

Pretty fun, albeit typical for the area crimpy, balancey route. Some technical crimpy sidepulls through here, with challenging feet.

Descent:

Rappel route.

Variation start to Darling Nikki or Willbilly. Climb the thin face through some fun crimps and cracks to a large ledge.

The rock on the lower part of this route is different than the typical slabby grey limestone characteristic of the area. Pretty forgettable moves, but worth doing if it's your grade and you are right there.

Descent:

Rappel route.

Climb up to the undercling venturing out onto the face at the first bolt.  Delicate moves through the second and third bolts lead you to the top. See photo of Dad.

Interesting direct start to jugs the whole way.  Bring an apline draw or sling to to clip the upper bolt of Hemingway.

Thin face climbing to a thought provoking blank section 3 bolts up.
