Brief crux off the ground with a buffet of slightly technical jams and holds, then easy traversing and climbing on bomber holds and jams. Climbing straight up the slab after exiting the jam section and before the block that looks a bit like a bowling pin is about a grade harder. Could just as easily be bouldered.

Elf on the Shelf

Start down and left of pedestal, climb the weird cracks and mount the pedestal. Move directly into the money jamming on small hands.

Up easy 5th-class slab, climb straight up on seam and small crimps, cutting left after reaching large flake.

Climb the hands crack. Could be bouldered if not for impossible landing.

Start the arete at its base, climbing chunk features and holds to get pressed up between slab by shelf and the steep prow. Get into the main boulder problem compressing up the prow on okay holds.

Up easy 5th-class slab, cut left early on good crimps in a seam, then follow arete and undercling rails to top.

Start the seam and follow until it forks just under the bulge. Follow the left break up and over the overhang and onto the upper slab, then trend back right to top out. Technical gear with a bit of a runout on the upper slab.

Starts the same seam as M.R.E., but goes right after the fork. A tricky, but bomber .5 can be snuck into the wide break through the bulge, protecting the crux and much of the upper slab; get ready for a runout!

Face climb to a crux right before the slab starts curving into a scramble.

Run up the easy 5th-class slab, then climb the chunky right arete/holds.

Face climb the broken off width ~20ft to bomber/wide fists and a couple holds through the bulge. The line to the right with nice looking hands is not recommended due to dangerous levels of choss.

Climb large blocky holds and features right of the arete.

Many of the routes here are quite short, some being essentially boulder problems with ferociously bad landings, so expect to pull hard. While the level of choss varies, most routes have at least some degree of loose rock, although the holds clean up quickly with traffic. Remain mindful that this is a predominantly a hiking area, so be aware of those around you who may not understand certain dangers associated with climbing, in particular falling rock and gear.
