While the name does not indicate it, this is actually the best and cleanest of the several routes on The Eyes.  Make a tough smooth start at the base to get past piles of pine needles and hop onto the East face at a low point near to it's North edge.  The difficulty is low once on the face and a few meters up, and we felt it was given to soloing.

This is a 200 ft route that climbs the East face of the Southernmost rock of the Eyes (see approach description on the rock section).

Scramble up via the path of least resistance and scramble down due West from the top.

This is a 400 foot route of which the first 50 feet prove to be the crux.

Start at the bottom of the face up a smooth, unprotected mossy and licheny slab (5.6 s). After this section, the climbing eases and protection appears.

This section can be avoided by starting the climb further up on the South (left side of the face) and traversing to the center.

After this, romp up easy rock to a ledge with broken blocks. Scramble left through the blocks and up another 100 foot section of slab to reach the summit.

Descent - scramble West onto another large boulder, and JUMP across a gap onto a boulder that is in hiking territory.

This route is a fun 300+ ft scramble up the East face of the northenmost piece of the Eyes (see approach on the rock description)

Unlike the other two rocks, there is less lichen on this rock.

Start at the foot of the face and scramble up following a trough. Reach a ledge/summit full of boulders and broken pieces and work your way left to a large boulder / Flatiron piece. This is the summit block and it is the tallest rock of the Eyes. Climb up a large crack on the North side and traverse left on a flake / ledge towards the East face. From there it is a simple 30 ft scramble to the top.
