Description 

The right side of the Corral Wall has a good selection of 15 routes or so with a fairly even mix of crack and faces, but the overall quality of the routes here is not on par with the left side of the wall. A number of bolted anchors on the crag allow one to descend easily as well as pack in a large number of routes in a short time if so inclined.

Exfoliation Confrontation (5.9), Bucket Bronco (5.10a) and Hang 'em High (5.10a) are the best of the routes here but when it's cold and windy elsewhere they're all fun.

Routes from left to right:

Watering Hole (5.1)
Hang 'em High (5.10a)
Nectkie Party (5.6)
High Noon (5.10b R)
Riding Shotgun (5.7)
Shotgun Wedding (5.7 R)
Hitchin' Post (5.6)
Exfoliation Confrontation (5.9)
Triple Bypass (5.10b)
Pony Express (5.9)
Czech Crack (5.10a)
Bucket Bronco (5.10a)

Starting from just above the Exfoliation Confrontation anchors are the following:

Wooden Nickel (5.5 R)
Marked Card (5.9 R)

This is a fun and juggy route. There were a few decently protected cruxes where smaller holds had to be used, but all in all it was sinker holds. This was in sharp contrast to most of my "smearing" J-Tree experiences. It was more like climbing Southeastern sandstone!This climb is on the right-hand portion of the Corral Wall, towards the left end of that side. Climb a dark wall with a few bolts and huge, apparent juggy holds, eventually going up and right into a light section of rock to finish at...[more]   Browse More Classics in CA
