Description Suggest change

All names have been made up in order to publicize extant climbs of unknown origin (likely Seth Tart and Dennis Buise)

The “Preface” is the 100’ buttress five minutes before The Cookbook. Darker and dirtier rock at the bottom leads to clean, white walls with overhung faces at the top. Hiking up the west side will also reveal increasingly shorter routes that are steep in nature. All routes appear to be mixed with 90s era cold-shut anchors and shiny new stainless bolts.

Getting There Suggest change

Follow directions to The Cookbook. About five minutes before the cookbook gully is an impressive white face 20 yards off the trail. The short approach trail will drop you off on the right most bolted routes.
