If someone else has climbed this, obviously let me know.   I saw this crack from above and it's hard to see from anywhere below at the trail or otherwise. We were not sure about it until we hiked up to it. On closer inspection it was much easier then what it looked from afar.    Called it Alfabeto - cause its as basic as the alphabet and Aaron was thinking about food as always... 

  Good intro trad crack.

Climb the crack and slabs immediately to the right of Blue Sky. Pull a fractured overhang and hook left to the shared anchors with Blue Sky.

Crux is at the first bolt with thin face climbing. The small roof has many features to use to pull yourself over.

The broken crack system on the right of the main wall. Finishes on right face.    Great trad practice route.

Furthest right route on the wall. Climb directly up slabs in the middle of a the bowl on the right side of the formation. Aim for the break in the rocks up high and pull the fractured overhang. Angle up to the right to the anchors.

Left side of the slab. Climb discontinuous crack past 2 large horizontal cracks to low angle slab exit. 

Consistent route. A few slab moves is all it is. Most of the de-laminating flakes of granite have been knocked off this route.

Easy slab past discontinuous left trending crack to single bolt. Continue to 2 bolt anchor. 

Slab climb with only a few areas that need some friction.

New trails in the Preserve see hikers, horseback riders, and mountain bikers. Climbers are not as prevalent.Chunky granite and full sun.
