Cropped version of Five Open Books - Descent Options. <br> Shows the "Edge Trail" that can be avoided by taking a right turn at an inobvious point and walking along the base of the short upper wall.
Five Open Books descent options. The normal downclimb that is often wet in the spring, and the dry alternative.

Five Open Books (photo stolen from Mike Morley - Thanks Mike!). Topo shows the classic The Caverns (5.8) to Selaginella (5.8). Eight pitches of 5.8 featuring liebacks, face climbing, off-width, finger cracks, & hand cracks. Pretty much everything you got!
