Slopers and high feet marks the start to this arete problem.  Go up along the arete - two finish variations exist with both being about the same in grade and equally fun.

Mind the tree branches as you top out.

The problem is given a rating of V3 in drtopo's guide, but feels much easier for the grade.

Go up the low angled slab.

Note: this problem is mentioned as "unnamed" in topos / guides.  If anyone has the FA and the given name, I'm more than happy to change it.

An easy problem up along a series of rails, crimpers and jugs.  Several variations exist.

Also is a downclimb.

Note:  This problem is listed as "unnamed" in topos and guidebooks.  If anyone knows the FA and given name, I'm more than happy to change it to give credit where credit is due.

An impressive line along an arete with a great landing. Cracker Boy starts at large left facing flake and ascends along a series of gritty slopers to finish topping out over a broad overhanging face.

long lockoffs between good crimps and flakes to straight forward topout

A frustrating start on left facing sidepulls / flake moves up to... another left facing sidepull / flake.  Move past this flake and go for the top out.

Mind the branches while topping out.
