| Intellitoys is soon to be a very popular classic, due to location, rating, quality, and length. Shady in the morning until about noon, this is a great warm-up for other routes in the Test Site. |

| Very fun climb. Improbably steep for the grade, there are great pockets the whole way up after the roof. |

| "Intellitoys" has become one of the most popular moderates at Echo Cliffs. Great moves on amazing pockets and features. Surprisingly steep for the grade. |

| A great route, and a solid 5.9. I was weary about leading it since it was only established a few months ago, thinking it would still be chossy, but there was some obvious hard work put into cleaning and bolting this route...every hold was solid and fun the whole way up. Soon to be a classic! |

| Above the break, this route boasts excellent rock, by area standards. |
