Description:
Climb the crack next to Route 1 described above. Note: The crux of this climb is the start, so make sure you are rock solid in the grade before trying, because a fall at the start means a sprained ankle, unless you are on TR. So, all the pro on this climb consists of nuts, no cams needed (belay cam optional--see below). Follow the crack up through a ceiling and reach a bolted belay on the ceiling. Two rap hangers are solid, you can back it up with a large cam in a crack to the right of the bolts. The second pitch is revolting--rap off to the ground....

Route 2
The start was tricky, because the only good spots to be used for hand hold s are riddled with dirt, vegetation, and loose rock. Which is fairly frustrating, and for me, makes the route a no-go. Or in this case, a no re-do.

Lots of dirt, some shrubbery and no fun. Plus, the rock at Stover is just poor.

Led it. Start is about 5.6. The rest of the climb is rather easy. Hardest part is getting onto the ledge when full of grass.
