Description 

This face hosts a mix of moderate cracks and bolted faces, moderate to hard. Flaring cracks, flaky cracks, polished slab and face, pocketed face.

A shady spot in the spring afternoon. The routes on the right are a walk off to the right. The face routes lower off bolt anchors. The classic ZZZZZ (5.9) is located on this rock.

There are of couple of new Bob Gaines routes (I think) here to the right of ZZZZZ (and Electric Blue).


Getting There 

Park at Echo Rock Parking Lot and walk under the EBGBs Boulder and around the right-hand side of Echo Rock past TS Special. Follow the trail across open desert heading towards the left end of Little Hunk, pass around the end of Little Hunk, the climbs start on the right.

The route density, distance from the road, and selection of grades make this a great wall for hot days in Josh.

The left side of Little Hunk's East Face (where Disrythmia, New Deal etc. are located) has been sometimes referred to as the "Vertical Adventure Wall".
