Black Quacker 

Although the first pitch is a sandbag at 5.6, it is not heinous. It protects very well on small to medium cams and slung chockstones; no need for large gear. This is good practice for routes in the Sierra or the Valley.

Pitch 3: the cracks to the left of the dihedral are really good (except where you have to bushwhack around the tree, but other than that...).

Pitch 4 variation: also good. Greg, I liked the alpine pro (read "draped chickenhead") in your photo.

Did this at night in Oct. with no moon and could still see quite well just by the lights of the city. A really neat way to experience this classic.

While living in Tucson, I got used to never needing a headlamp up on the summit crags. One day we came out late from the reef (north side) and found that without the lights of Tucson it's absolutely, completely dark up there on the N. side. The cool part was that there was some sort of glow in the dark fungus there that would shine a faint yellow when you stepped on it. You left a faint glowing trail of footsteps as you hiked along - never saw anything like it since then.

The hike from the top of the rock down to the base is steep and brushy. I highly recommend leaving packs at the top of the rock, bring only the gear for the climb, and wear sneakers/sandals.
Pitch 1 - went up Bender Axen, move belay to tree and go down into canyon through the tree.
Pitch 2 - the 1 bolt belay in notch at top of 2nd pitch was tough to find. When the climbing gets steep look up to the right to see the notch. It is not along the line you are following up the canyon. I did not use the notch and just built a belay station below the nearby tree in the crack.
Pitch 3 - easy to protect and fun. ends at 2 bolt anchor.
Pitch 4 - travel to the climber's right and start slinging chickenheads. I built a station off of the chickenheads at the big ledge, but traveling further would have reduced rope drag for pitch 5.
Pitch 5 - continue up the continuous wall of chickenheads and top out.

Going up left on P4 is fun too. Follow the thin crack up diagonally from the 2 bolt belay. After a while you end up on giant chicken heads and you can belay from a big tree on a ledge near the top.

Like David, I found anchoring out left of the notch at the end of p2 was comfy and in the shade.
P3, after the tree is really fun climbing. Great liebacking section.
P4 variation to the left was fun and no harder than 5.8ish for about two moves, after which it eased up considerably.
We simul-climbed from P4 on up.

Climbed first pitch on Aug 28th 2011. Surprised to see somebody used first pitch belay notch as a bathroom complete with tp. You should have rapped to the deck being only 70 ft up. Please have respect for nature and future climbing parties. You wouldn't do that at the gym or would you. Guilty party please stay in the gym and move out of Arizona!
