Broken cracks in lighter rock to splitter fingers through a varnished bulge to shallow left-facing corner. Nice route but it's kind of out on its own and like many Power Wall routes it's a bit short.

"I Got The POWER"

Short little twin crack/ left facing corner right of Batteries Not Included.

Good clean fun. Would be a classic if it were not over so quick.

This unknown OW should be on the list of "must do" wide cracks in the creek! super splitter on black rock with crisp edges. my knee fit great most of the way. there is a small bulge 1/3 of the way up.  the cruxes are the slight flare down low and when it pinches down to old 4 camalots up high.  ends with hands and fingers! Awesome!

In a left facing corner.  3rd route right of Power Line.  It is Splitter hands to big hands to a 2 bolt anchor.

Right arching crack through a roof makes for a bouldery start.  Tapers down to tips by the time you reach the anchor.  Short but tough.  Don't grab the chains.  Clip off of that last hold.

Starts small. Gets big. Anchors up in the heavens.

Name is chiselled into the rock face. Super lame. Don't do that.

This is the Unknown route 2 in Bloom's 2013 guidebook which is described as starting on a small ledge above a juniper. Starts on very thin hands and quickly transitions to fists and OW in a clean corner. At the end there is an awkward bulge which can be protected with a hand-sized piece at the back.

Around the corner and to the right of Flower Power. It is the Twin Cracks that will get you pumped.  Ring locks come in handy here.

The pitch starts with .75 camalots to a ledge and then slowly tapers down from .5's to .3's and blue metolius at the top with a heartbreaker crux at the finish.

This is the route done to set up a TR on Powerline. Good fingers for the first fifty feet (mostly 5.11- finger locks to a short tips section) leads to a thin crux layback sequence at the top. Very fun!

Sharp thin hands to hands corner in jet black varnish with a tips splitter just to the left. Nice warm up for the small-handed folks.

We top-roped around on the tips splitter and it's hard, maybe 12+, and feels kind of contrived as it's so close to the easier corner.

Bombay start to some hands fists and a nice stem box at the top On some really good stone

The next crack to the right or Power Play.  this climb is short but pumpy.  Layback and jam the right facing flake.

Some say that it is the best 1" crack in the world.  And I am sure it is worth the little hike to it.  It is the 5th line to the left of Flower Power (which is the big left facing corner)

Pitch 1: 90 feet, tips finger crack. Start on top of the big 12 foot block. The pitch has two distinct crux's, one at the start of the pitch off the block and the other below the large ledge. Line starts in small tips crack and arches gradually to the right before going straight up.

Pitch 2: 90 feet, tips crack. Belay from bolted anchors. Line starts just to the left of the anchors and has a high crux before the anchors.

Both pitches are sustained 5.12+ tips cracks.

Climb the flake crack up about 15 feet, then make an interesting boulder problem move to the right (crux) to gain a right-facing dihedral with a wavy wall on the right.  Climb the dihedral as it widens from tips to fists.

Pitch 1 - A short 30 foot handcrack in a block to a bolted anchor.

Pitch 2 - Climb the left-facing corner with fingers to tight-hands up through two roofs.

This is a variation to the offwidth climb Apocalypso that was originally put up by Steve Quinlan and Les Hutchinson in 1987.

Pitch 1: The 30 foot hand crack is fun and easy. If you're doing Power, Hardly Know Her in one pitch it is recommended that you solo this pitch, or extend the heck out of your pieces. Please climb responsibly!

Pitch 2: Move right on the ledge and start up the obvious wide hands crack. Slowly move from hands to fists and navigate an awkward pod. The awkward pod turns back into hands and then do a creative move through a small fours roof. The original climb, Apocalypso (5.11) goes right from here up the slot and into the large corner. Power, Hardly Know Her, goes straight up the face into a BEAUTIFUL hands splitter. Follow this gorgeous wandering hands crack through all the hands sizes and then pull a funky little traverse move out left. Head back into the hands for a final and enjoyable stretch to the anchors.

The climb felt harder than 5.10 to me with my small hands, but the bigger handed folk I climbed with said it felt very comfortably 5.10. Bring more threes and fours if that size is hard for you!

Sustained OW #4's, with at least 3 distinct cruxes.

A steep zig-zagging .75 crack identifies the start of this route.  Some soft rock needs to be negotiated to get to the crack and then a deceivingly hard crux gives way to thin hands.  Save some finger pieces for the top.

This route is just left of Batteries Not Included.  In the beginning you have some faceclimbing then up to some hard stemming.  It climbs along twin thin cracks.

Flower Power is set in a left facing big corner on the Power Wall.  Hard to miss.  The crack is varied to small tips to start to good hand.  Pull through a small roof 1/2 way up (the crux) to the 2 bolt anchor.

Hands to some cups then some fists right in to a long stretch of big #4 camalots that gain some good ledges, and then some blue collar OW get you to the chains...
