A ton of people's first outdoor climb and lead climb.  A small tree grows on the cliff on a ledge just right of the start.  The route's start foot holds include a gnarly left-facing flake.  Can be done with or without the help of the tree.

Dude, Where's My Cat?

As the name implies, this route is sporty and there has been some discussion about retro-bolting this.  And for this reason I suspect that this route is not well traveled.  The first bolt is off the ground a bit and requires some delicate movement to get to it.  The second bolt is then a fair distance away; from what I recall the climbing is straightforward but blowing it here will possibly land you on the ground, bouncing off the tree at the base in the interim.  After the sweaty palms and heartburn of this first section, the route eases up and is fairly unremarkable.   

  I recommend doing this once just for giggles; but, the line is nothing special given that the crux is down low.

Back Flip is a little harder than Scotts Pelotas, with big holds and some strenuous moves, especially near the top where it angles left a bit and shares anchors with Water Ballet.  There is a bit of distance between the last bolt and the anchors.  Make sure Water Ballet is clear before starting up.

The crux is the very smooth section below the anchors.

Located on the left side of Dead Cats Wall, and just right of a large, orange buttress with a bolted route that climbs through a large bulge (Marios Route, 5.12a).  There are some thin, somewhat tricky moves right off the ground that lead to easier climbing above.

stay off the tree, cruux is in the first couple moves, enjoy!

Fun climb up a the well featured face.  Start on a less than vertical face and climb past a small tree and three bolts to a steeper head wall at the top of the climb.  There are plenty of small but solid holds to chose from on the upper face.

Same start as Reimerama (1st two bolts), then traverse over to Dude Where's my Cat third bolt. Route is a variation route.

Climb past great holds on the flake (as you lean to the right), then face climb past three bolts to the anchors.  The crux is climbing through the sloping hand holds between the last bolt and the anchors.  Great feet with some better holds up and to the left.

Start up a well featured face that is a bit steeper than the starts of the other climbs here.  Transition into a shallow dihedral at the second bolt and then continue up easy terrain to the anchors.

The route starts out on the right side of Dead Cats Wall the next route over from Power Snatch. 

  The start is a three pad undercling on the left hand, the right is a comfy side pull.  Step up right and smear left, laying back on the undercling.  Throw right for a big crimp.  Rotate the left and place a kneebar on the shelf under the bulge.  Match the crimp and then fire left or right for jugs.  Smear left and step high bringing your balance up on the curb and let your right hand deadpoint on a small lip.  Move your feet below you and stand up reaching left for the thankyoujug. Work the jugs up the face and finish right on 5.6 face or finish left on the upper face of Power Snatch.

Climb the White Streak. A TR variation of Water Ballet. Fun variation.

Climb past the first two bolts to a good rest in the cave.  Exiting the cave is a little tricky, as is the third clip (crux).  There are good holds all of the way up the right side of the climb.

The walls namesake route  fun, with a great finish.  Straight forward climbing leads past two bolts to the small roof.  Pull through the roof (crux), stand up, search for the plentiful holds above, and clip the third bolt.  Angle right past one additional bolt where a big, sloping hold leads to the anchors.

The hardest part of the route is getting past the first ten feet.  Once past the low crux, continue on big holds to the top.

climb through easy 5.9ish climbing to the bulge.  A somewhat technical and not easily read crux leads to the chains

Easy climbing up good jugs leads to a couple of sketchy moves under the third bolt (crux).  Pull a small, easy roof above the 3rd bolt and then clip one more on your way to the anchors.

Crux move or two after third bolt. Most do it as a long throw, stronger climbers do it staticly.

fingery start, lots of choices for feet and hands.  balancey to a commiting finish over a nice bulge.

Climb up and right to the first bolt (the clipping stance can be a little awkward until you find a not-so-obvious hold).  Continue up two the little roof and clip the second bolt.  The third bolt can be reached from below the roof.  Move up and right through the roof to the anchors above.  Not great, not bad.  It's considerably easier and less heady than Back Flip to its left even though they both get the same grade.  The crux is just above the first bolt.

An unmemorable route for a one-day visitor to Reimers.  Location beta courtesy Sean O'Grady's book "Austin Rock."

Small, but solid, holds and pockets all of the way to the top.  There is a great slot followed by a finger crack near the second bolt that offers up some good moves through the middle of the route.  The route's crux comes near the top - a couple of ballancy mantles that lead to good holds near the anchors.

Starts in the center of a long law ledge. It takes a long time to climb this short route.

This wall provides an assortment of excellent quality, moderate routes.  Routes range from 5.8 to 5.11 and require no more than 8 quickdraws.  Trees keep portions of the wall in the shade during the hot Texas days.  As the routes are moderate and of good quality, and the wall is easily accessible, this area can become quite crowded on the weekends.
