Start at the base of the bulging slab -- a couple of shared bolts with 10c to the left. Fun climbing on some good holds -- nothing tricky, but the sun can be in your eyes at certain times of the day. Two rap-rings for anchors at the top. FA: Andy Agopsowics | 25m, 12 | |||||

5.10c | ★★★ Dirty Dream
Second bolted line from the left to the right The climb looks easier than it is. Last moves are very interesting. Sits directly to climbers left of the Your Mom’s Wet Hole FA: Adam revit | 10m, 3 | |||||
5.11a | ★★★ Your moms wet hole
Third bolted line from the left to the right The climb has pre hung draws on chains which is a very nice touch. Lots of fun big moves, however the rock is still very sharp and will punish the overly dynamic. The anchor is one ‘biner at the lip of the roof. Not some- thing regularly seen, but there’s no need to climb higher once it’s clipped. The interesting moniker for the route followed from a crucial hold being very wet around the time of the FA, according to Graham Proulx. FA: Graham proulx | 10m, 6 | |||||
5.8 | ★★★ Over the top
Fourth bolted line moving left to right. Neat little stemming section to the first clip & easy climbing to the top. Stem through a cool chimney to start, once through the chimney scram- ble up an easy thin low angle ramp along a good crack to the top. Hard to call it 5.8, maybe 5.7.A little run out. ffa pat lynam | 11m, 4 | |||||

5.10a | ★★ crocodile rock
Crocodile Rock 5.10a 4 bolts FA: Adam Revit 11 metres Left most bolted line Interesting rock and fun moves. Utilize stemming while in crack at bottom of the climb. Potential ground fall between 2nd and 3rd bolt, a diligent belay helps. Good to be tall on this climb! Lot’s of gear left behind on this climb since people don’t com- mit to the mantle. There’s holds there - look for ‘em. | 11m, 4 | |||||

First climb on climbers left on Dirt Stamp Wall. Short and crimpy for the grade. After putting in the anchors and running out of battery power for the drill, Seanathon decided to still send the route sans bolts. (Free Solo) FA: Seanathon, 24 Apr 2016 | 4 | |||||

5.8 | ★★ Soft on Soft
Follow the black streak directly up and slightly left, staying left of bolt line. We should have named this one bolt ladder!

5.10c | ★★ The Bat
Retro bolted climb. Like the name says, there is one crux move at 5.10c. A fun route none the less. Found out this route was originally called "The Bat 5.10d" FA by Julian Mclean. It only had one bolt and no anchors. FA: Julian Mclean, 1992 | 5 | |||||

5.10 | ★★★ Unknown
Between Jingo (Choss Cave) and the ledge with Half Century Girl, The Burning Man and Here Comes Trouble. 2 Pitches, first is 10+ to rap bolts, second is 10- to rap station, best done as one long pitch, close to 35m, a 70m rope works fine to lower off or rappel. A little scruffy at the bottom, but some nice jug pulling over the roof to fun face and chert climbing higher up. I think it had 15 bolts if done as one. | 25m | |||||
5.11b | Half Century Girl
