to the right of Spitting Venom. SDS left hand on crimp with tiny pocket, right hand in shallow pocket.

Starting just right of "Electric Coolaid", climb the right sloping crack until it turns vertical and peters out in the slight scoop in the face, then follow two bolts up and leftwards to the shared anchor.

Easy climbing, but little to no protection beyond the bolts. Not a good choice for a beginning leader.

I really liked this route as a lead. It is 5.8 if you use holds on the face, 5.9 if you stay in the crack. Protection is abundant although there are a couple of run outs.

Climb the large varnished corner on the left side.

A superb sustained route at the grade (5.7+). Very popular, due to bolted anchors, ability to be rappelled on single 70m rope, and very good climbing with generally solid protection.

Start below the left-most of 2 obvious long cracks the split the lower part of the varnished buttress left of the corner that Spectrum climbs to the roof 60ft up. This is a few yards above a huge boulder that leans against the cliff creating a tunnel.

1. Climb the left crack to an anchor on a treed ledge. 110ft. 5.5 (Handren says 5.6, but it doesn't climb that hard.)

2. Climb straight up from the anchor, then follow a crack in the wall right of the main chimney to a ledge. Up the steep corner, then right under a block to an anchor at the right end of a big ledge. 110ft 5.7.

3. Go up and right about 10ft of easy ground to a left-leaning corner. At the top, traverse left past a bolt (crux) then up a steep crack to a ledge. Then up and right to the anchor. 85ft, 5.7+.

4. Go up about 20ft to a horizontal crack, then move up and right accross discontinuous cracks to an anchor on the face. This pitch has the most complicated route-finding -- generally, when in doubt, go up or right. On the face there should be a down-arching horizontal curve, and the anchor being aimed for is near the bottom of the curve. Belay at anchors with huecos for your feet. 95ft 5.6.

5. Move up and right to a thin crack, then over a bulge and up a thin (finger crack) on a varnished face with small holds and small gear. Finish on a small triangular, down-sloping ledge (crux). 95ft, 5.7+.

6. Variant, adds an extra 75ft pitch, not usually climbed due to fragile rock and run-out climbing. Climb up passing a small roof on the right, then continue up and right to an anchor in a small right-facing corner. 75ft, 5.7.

There's a "stray" anchor between "Albacore Man" and "Chips and Salsa" which can be used to TR the wall between the two climbs.

Crux midpitch exiting the bulge

Begin with small crimp on the slight prow.

Set of bolts just right of The Stranger

2nd route to the left of What R Streek. Shares anchor with Slab Stick.

The right-most of a trio of well-chalked climbs on the lower tier of the Hamlet, below the easier 5.6-5.9 climbs. Angular holds on an overhanging start lead up to an exciting slab finish.

Zander Waller suggests V9 for the route (2023).

Stand start right hand flat edge at or slightly above head, low left on left facing edge. Various start variations available, (start lower right hand with wide right heel or toe, or even lower with a low right sit start). Also exit variations available - either straight up, or left-ish to arete.

Left-most route on the steep section, starts about 40ft up the gully.
