5.11b | ★★★ Gringo Disco
Long and sustained. Don't confuse the anchors for "Mr. P. Mosh" as part of the climb -- though they can be very useful for rappel to get down with a single rope. Can safely be descended in one pitch using an 80m rope. FA: Kurt Smith & Ned Harris | 43m, 15 | |||

5.9 X | Monster Truck
Looking up into the Potrero from the camping area, there is an obvious steep ridge line up the right side of the Potrero -- that's Monster Truck, the whole ride line. Do the first two pitches of "Quick Draw McGraw", then continue up the ridge following the path of least resistance when the ridge looks harder than 5.9. Lots and lots and lots of pitches, with generous chunks of 3rd class, too. | 1800m | |||

Climb the large corner right of "Quick Draw McGraw". | 3 | |||
