A Crag Guide gives an extensive view of all sub areas and climbs at a point in the index. It shows a snapshot of the index heirachy, up to 300 climbs (or areas) on a single web page. It shows selected comments climbers have made on a recently submitted ascent.
At a minor crag level this should be suitable for printing and taking with you on a climbing trip as an adjunct to your guidebook.

1.2. Spirits Wall 5 routes in Boulder
- Summary:
-
All Bouldering
Lat / Long: 37.927245, -122.587851
description
A cool boulder with an inspiring featured cave on its downhill side. Some opportunity for hard new problems & variants.
approach
From the 'Lakeview Boulders' continue for 50ft until you reach a dirt service road. Follow this right (uphill) around a switchback until you reach the top (ignore a turn off to a green Star Wars dome on the left).
At the top where the buildings are, turn hard left and walk behind the green building - the top of the boulder is obvious once behind the building, facing the East Peak of Mt Tamalpais.
