There is an ice (possibly mixed) climb on the black water streak in the winter. Transformer climbs the face to the right of the black streak. There are two short but steep routes on the triangle-shaped headwall on the far right.

[Hide Comment] Any beta about the bolts waayyy up above the Static Wall? On the wall with a large roof and left(west) facing corner? I first noticed the bolts back in the mid/late 90's. Mar 15, 2009

[Hide Comment] We did 2 pitches of a route 100 yards left of transformer and could see a third heading into steeper terrain but didn't have time to check it out. The first to pitches were moderate 5.7-8ish and you may want some gear to supplement bolts. Curious where it goes if anyone knows... Mar 26, 2012
