Routes as sport in Orchid Alley

First line on the wall as you enter the alley. Nice piece of rock to start then head up the furthest left line of bolts.

Shares the same tricky start as the previous route. Once over the start the dyno in the middle may shake you off.

A little steep and a little pumpy. Stick clip first bolt, over bulge and up flake then punchy crux leaving the horizontal break. Traverse right from bolt 5 then back left and up to anchors.

Start at Big News Day, heading right at the first break to follow the line of stainless to the anchors. Route name changed at request of first ascentionist

Next right of Poofs on Hoofs. A bit of slapping required at the bulge and then easy to the top. Route name changed at request of first ascentionist,

Start at the next line of bolts right of DTB. If you can't sought out the start because of the maze of bolts then figure it out by the grade. Its likely to be harder than 23.

Next line of bolts right of the previous project. Again take your pick of the bolts you want to use as the start.

The easiest route in the alley. Start at the left facing corner which sought of shares the same start as the next route. Up the start trending left onto the line of bolts with a crux near the top.

Start at PDM and head right to follow the bolts to a knob pulling crux near the top.

Found near the bottom of the alley at yellow wall capped by small roofy type overlap. Don't let the very thin and fragile start put you off. If you snap off any of the start holds just chip a couple of new ones. Its not the start you are climbing this route for, its the next 8 or so moves which are the stella crux. Once thru to the ledge then its easy to the lower offs. Route name changed at request of first ascentionist

Start about 1.5 meters right of MBR. You will have to be keen to climb this one as the intermittent seepage means the moss keeps growing back on the crux. As nobody likes a to walk anywhere these days it hasn't had a lot of ascents.

Start at the little crack feature right of RJ. At the first bolt head left thru bulge and up to ledge.

Second best route on the crag only surpassed by Big News Day. Start at the same crack feature as the previous French mouthful but head straight up. A few small holds and your up.

The last climb on the wall. Located on the left arete of the chimney at the bottom of the alley. So much for an area that may only host 4 or 5 routes other than big news day.... HA HA HA. PS the wall on your left is a sandy pile of cack.
