Crimpy start and bad feet to a little throw. Then hit the crux. Finish on same anchors as Dirty Sheets.

My favorite route in the little cave. Several boulder problems, cool holds, and cool moves.

This route shares the start with Small Axe and Telache on big jugs through the first couple of bolts.  The crux is found just after the three routes split when you have to make a bigger move between not quite as good of holds.  Overall a fun route if you can figure out which way to go and not get confused among the sea of quickdraws leading you astray.

Start on Pig Iron but continue right after Pig Iron crux, out the arch.

Cool route with a tough crux coming out from the overhang on small holds.

This route shares the start with Churning in the Choss and Telache.  Start up the big jugs and stay left at the split.  The bolts are very close to Churning, so the goal is to avoid the bigger holds on Churning to get the 5.11b grade.  Crux comes just after the routes split.

Left most route in the little cave. Starts juggy then a tough little crux.

Bit of a boulder problem down low. Then traverse left and up into the shared anchor.

This route starts up big jugs to gain the obvious flake.  Make a couple of moves up the flake to some good holds just left of the flake.  The crux arrives at this point as you have to make a couple of moves on smaller slopey holds to get to the clipping hold inside the big black hueco.  Stay on the left side of the hueco on big holds up to the anchor.  The guide book mentions that you can climb into the hueco for a good rest but you won't get the full value out of the route.  Really though, once you are to the hueco the holds are big enough that you shouldn't have any problem hanging onto them.

This route shares the start with Small Axe and Churning in the Choss.  Begin with big jugs for the first couple of bolts, then start heading right on smaller holds.  Make sure to head up instead of continuing to the right for the linkup with Tube Steak and the crux is found in this section as the holds are smaller and the movement is bouldery.

Small crimps and technical movement down low till you join Plate Tectonics.

Easy huecos and jugs to chains.  Still cleaning up; I broke some rather large holds off.
