Stairway to Heaven goes up 3 rails to the top of Rainbow Rocks. The crux is the third rail.

Weak Cookie

Above the Flag

Shadow of Doubt

The Needle

Goblin Artillery

Wheel of Fortune

Patience

Polymorph

Armageddon Clock

Polymorph  is a long, pumpy route that starts with crimps and edges and then traverses a slopey rail. Then it continues up and right, finishing on the same route as: Above The Flag (5.7, V0).

The start to this is on the right side of the cliff, in front of a tree. Start on a long wide jug that is angled a little bit to the left. Follow the line of sharp and sloped jugs, straight up.

 *This route is on a whole different rock. It is very close but not connected to the main cliff.

The crux is getting over the first ledge. You go up a few feet then traverse across a crack to the right, then go up to the topout.

This is a super fun link-up of some of the routes on this cliff. It starts sitting under the start jug for Weak Cookie and then goes up for a bit and traverses left, joining Armageddon Clock for the finish.

Start on 2 edges (the right one is lower than the left). Go up angling slightly left and to a sloppy ledge, then top out using big edges.

This is a fun long route. The only hard move is the first one, then it is basically all big positive holds to the top. If you fall on the last few moves, you could hurt yourself, so be careful, use many pads, and have a spotter too. The good news is that the top is really easy.

The crux is probably the first move or two. The topout could also be hard, because you can’t really see the holds that well, so you pretty much just have to guess (that’s why it’s called Wheel of Fortune).

This is a super fun and tricky route that ascends a right-angling crack/seam, starting with hard moves on tiny, sharp crimps and sidepulls, and moving into reaches between good holds to the top.

Armageddon Clock is a super fun route with lots of small, sharp, crimpy moves and big reaches in the middle of the overhanging face.*This is on a separate rock than the main cliff. When you get to the clearing, don’t go up the hill to the main wall. Walk a short way along the trail to the right until you see a tall (not very wide) cliff on the left. It is hard to miss.

This is a fairly large rock with lots of climbs mostly bouldering and some TR.
