Bonnie's Roof DirectThe final direct finish of Bonnie's Roof (5.9). A fine example of the excellent exposure to be found on many Gunks routes. The regular finish is easier (5.7) but is just as exposed.

Steep face climbing at Lost CityBrave New World 5.12a/b An excellent Russ Clune route that ascends a slightly overhanging face that is painted with water streaks. The crux is at the very start and there's no solid pro until you've climbed 5.11c move after the crux. Above, however, there's plenty of solid gear placements. The wall to the right of the climber is now home to Collect Call 5.12c. Both routes are usually top-roped.

Survival of the FittestOriginally put up by Scott Franklin in traditional style (he banged pins in from the ground up), this hard, technical route has become a popular top-rope testpiece in the Gunks. It was also the site of the first free-solo of a 5.13 by an American (also Franklin). The crack immediately to the right, is Persistence 5.11b/c, first climbed by John Stannard. The blank wall right of the crack is home to Mantronix 5.13d FFA Jerry Moffat
