Description
This is the next major concentration of classic climbing as you walk west along the cliffband from the top of the approach trail. You should pass 100-200 yards of uninspring rock after walking under Plumber's Crack. (the wide splitter on the left end of the Lost Art zone) The twin cracks and flake/namesake of Guillotine, the small roof right of the Guillotine belay ledge, (not pictured in the topo-sorry!) and the parallel dihedrals above and left of that are all good landmarks to identify.
This section of cliff is greater than ~40m tall. Many of these routes have optional belays at roughly half height but can usually be led from the ground in a single pitch.
