1
D.A.B v8 ★★
Sit under the roof on the upper level ledge with feet dangling. Use the lowest reachable holds, being a good left hand arete sidepull and right hand edge under roof. Climb the short and low arete/roof combo. Good for a dirt burglar.
-
Notorious D.A.B. v9− ★
Start on Headbanger and finish direct out the narrow roof of D.A.B.

2
Shortbread v4 ★
Sit start under the roof on upper ledge matched on a slopey lip about five feet from the arete. Finish on D.A.B. Strangely popular.
-
3
Tailspin v9 ★★★★
Start matched at the obvious incut crimp rail at head height. Climb right and out the roof to the technical slab top out. This is THE line of the area.
-
Tailspin Sit Start v10− ★★★
Sit start matched on a sloper down in the mini dihedral and climb into Tailspin.
-
-
4
Ducktails v3 ★★★
Start the same as Tailspin and continue climbing out rightward under the roof into Dark Wing.
-
Ducktails Sit Start v6 ★
Duck Tails from a sit start.

5
Dark Wing v1 ★★
Climb the good face via edges and ledges over the small pit.
-
Dark Wing Sit Start v5 ★
Dark Wing from a sit start, for those wanting extra groveling, fewer stars and some more Mario coins.

South face

6
Sloppy Feet v0
Follow the right trending seam from a stand from the far left to the right arete and top out. This was done in slippers for the cleaning, onsight first ascent.
-
7
Rescue Rangers v1 ★★★
Start on a good slot at head height and climb straight up. Can feel airy up there. Good holds beyond the lip during the panic topout.
-
8
Chip & Dale v1
Sit start under the very small roof overlap and climb crimps up the slab. Smaller folks can sandbag taller folks with a uncomfortably lower start.
-
9
Headbanger v1 ★
To the right of the big wedged stone under the roof. Start matched on a big undercling. Traverse left and finish as Chip & Dale. Fun movement, shitty everything else. Helmet suggested. Starting the same and finishing direct out the narrow roof is Notorious D.A.B. (v9 ☆).

10
Con Huevos v3 ★★★
Climb the tall face standing from crimps. Sketchy, yet safely padded and spotted. As name implies. Can be done lower from the left face for added difficulty.
