Description Suggest change

Poker in the Rear is a well-protected, mixed route.

It has about 30 feet of moderate climbing leading to 7 or so bolts of slabby climbing above.

The crack down the middle of the face has many places for mid-sized gear or there are a few different seams you can use on the large flake to the left, although it's a little chossy.

The guidebook has this route at 80', but there wasn't a lot of rope to spare with a 60m, so it's probably closer to 90'.

It is a little bit dirty, but it is a good route! There are lots of different ways/gear you can use at the start.

There is a variation of this route that splits off right after you get over the ledge that leads to a different set of anchors. The variation is also ~5.9 and would be a rope stretcher with a 60m rope.

Location Suggest change

From the parking area, it is on the face directly across the road. Scramble up and to the right to the belay ledge.

Protection Suggest change

2-4 cams/nuts. 7 bolts to 2 coldshut anchors.
