Comments: There is no climbing in Montana. Go away.

Comments: I am by no means a 5.12 climber, but I would love a chance to hop on this classic line. Is it possible to reach the chain anchors from above to throw down a TR?

Comments: I think this is one of the better routes at this crag. The start is a little junky, so it looks like it doesn't get climbed much, but pulling the roof and gaining the steep slab above was interesting and fun.

Comments: A fun direct start can be done to this route. Instead of moving right and doing the hand traverse below the first bolt, place a small cam in the crack and cruise up. It's a bit of a bouldery move, but no harder than 5.8.

Comments: Runout (for N Table) but the climbing is easy between the bolts. Plus it's longer than most N Table routes, so it's probably a good beginner lead.

Comments: This is a fun route, though it may be mislabeled. The start is bouldery and there is a thin move around the 2nd bolt with a cool mono to the right. You have to pull a small overhang above the big ledge halfway up to finish.

Comments: Yep, I've hung on this one too. The guidebook calls this .10a, but getting your feet above the small roof while trying desperately to jam the crack is a 10b or 10c move for sure.

Comments: A fun trad route, one of the few pure crack climbs at Table. I clipped a bolt down low with a long sling before pulling above the bush. Bring your #1 and #2 Camalots for the top.

Comments: I don't understand why people are so upset about the low bolt. I was standing on top of the ledge, checking out the opening moves, and remembering that I had read that the crux happens early. I thought to myself that I had a possibility of decking if I fell early, but then I found and clipped the low bolt and felt quite a bit safer. With that peace of mind, I flashed the thing. If the bolt bothers you so much, just ignore it.
P.S. Nobody "owns" this route, or any other at Shelf.

Comments: I think 5.8 is a little stiff, I've run into trouble just above the roof move.

Comments: 5.10a, and one of the better routes at Table. A fun dyno early leads to interesting slab climbing on smaller holds up top. Precise footwork will get you through the upper section.
