The Predator Wall is one of the outstanding crags for the climber wanting something a little more challenging with it's collection of excellent 5.12 routes.
The Predator Wall - South Face is a popular destination when the weather is cold, while the lesser known Predator Wall - North Face with it's handful of less steep, but technical outings is a good choice when it's warm.
Drive in to a point even with the Roadside Crag and then head right (west) to join a road that heads south into another canyon that runs parallel to the main one with Raven Rocks etc.
The approach takes about 5-10 minutes from the parking area.

1) Red Tail Arete
2) Brown Recluse
3) One Eyed Jack?
4) Black Widow? ( with a right split line?)
The seemingly right most bolt line splits a few bolts up and the left way goes through a short Dihedral/chimney ending at chains with a plastic Hawaiian hula figurine.. The right variant appears to go over the bulge and has separate anchors?
One eyed jack is described as being the 3rd bolt line from left going through a Chimney, which seems to be the larger, left dihedral feature and would make sense.
What is the lone route out on the thin slabby east facing section of the Predator?
