This is a 2 pitch slab route on the left side of Bart Dome underneath the big roof.  The first pitch goes up a faint arch (maybe a piece) and then up bolts to a bolted belay.  The bolts are mostly 1/4" bolts. The climbing is low angle slab climbing, and there are more bolts on the pitches then show in the Domelands book topo. Pitch one goes more or less straight up, while pitch 2 traverses to the right, and ends a the the left end of the big roof. From here you can rap (2 ropes) or continue up The Vernacular or traverse right to the top pitches of Leona/Desperate But Not Serious.

The Vernacular

This is a kind of trick route. Guaranteed to pack a pump and is super fun! A bolted roof crack of sorts way the heck out in the wilderness. Oh yeah

From the anchor below the roof, head up to the flake/crack and get it on. Laybacking, heel and toe hooking, some jamming, and finally swinging will get you over the lip and a chain anchor.

Sweet route that follows a dike for 400 feet. If Bart Dome rock wasn't already featured enough for you, hop on this thing to add some wild crystal pulling.

P1 - 5.9 moves off the ground gain the first of three bolts and relatively easy terrain to an anchor on top of a horizontal dike.

P2 - head straight up the unprotected face or step left to a crack/groove where you might get some gear. Eventually some bolts will show up and a short headwall (5.9) must be climbed. Bolted anchor. P1 and 2 easily linked.

P3 - Up up the dike past closely spaced bolts which get you through the dike roof. Above, the dike becomes gigantic and you can place a piece or two in it if you want. Belay at anchor in alcove. 5.10a

P4 - Wowza, head up the super steep bulge stemming and pulling on crazy crystals (5.10c). Pass one bolted belay and continue up and right to another one. Continue on easy ground to the summit or rap

Third or fourth class up the first pitch. Then, work up the deep chimneys and grooves to the top.

P0 - 5th - Choose a path up the low angle slab at the base of the climb. Climb the slab until you reach the vertical wall to the right of aquaman itself. Clip the 1/4" bolt and make the easy but full value move to the base of the climb.

P1 - 5.6 - Work up your way up the flaring crack, moving to the right of the obvious protrusion that breaks the crack into 2. Pull through solid face holds until back into the crack. Then jam up to where the crack narrows. Grovel through the wide crack and finish above at an old bolted anchor.

P2 - 5.7 - Continue jamming up the crack, staying to the right side of another protrusion that splits the crack in two. Jam through the bulge and finish at another old bolted anchor.

P3 - 5.7

P4 - 5.6

P5 - 5.1

This climb starts up 200 feet , at the left end of the huge roof on the left side of Bart Dome.  You can either start on Under the Rainbow (5.8) or Leona (5.10b) to get to the start.  The climb goes more or less us incipient cracks face climbing to the top.  The first 2 pitches are the steep one, and after that it goes up easy water grooves to the top.  I would imagine many parties do two pitches (5.10a, 5.8), and then rap the route.
