This is a fun finger crack, but the crack is not that long, and it is filled with some vegetation. It is not really a destination climb, but it is good to do if you are already at the rock for other climbs. You have to climb up a little bit of featured rock to reach the crack. The crux is about halfway up the crack where there are no face holds. Here you must use the crack for hands and feet at the same time. At least pro is easy to place. The top is chimney-like, and you can make an anchor on a good ledge. This is a fun climb.

This is a fairly fun crack climb, but it has two bushes on it to climb through. It is a crack climb, but at times, you have to put your feet on the rock face rather than in the crack. There are some sections filled with dirt as well. The protection is good the entire length of the climb. The two pitches are both 5.9.

The first pitch is 110’ long. It has wide looking sections with two good hand cracks for protection. There is a tree near the bottom before the start of a hand crack. Starting to the right of the tree and traversing to the left to the main crack seems easiest.

The second pitch is only 30’ long and follows a good hand crack. There is a good ledge to belay on below this crack.

This crack is short and only has great climbing on its first half.  It was hard to give it two stars, but the good 20' of climbing is fun. The crux is in this first 20', but the crack protects well. There is an annoying bush in this section, but you get by it quickly. I cleaned out some other vegetation. If you come to this rock, you might as well do this climb, but it is not a destination climb. Hubbel shows a 4th class decent to the right in his book, but I could not find one.
