Start on the right-facing flake, climb blocks up and left to a small ledge (or skip it and go straight up). Continue along two right-leaning cracks until they fork. From there stay on the left crack and climb up, this is the crux. The crack to the right looks possible to send as well and is listed as variation for this climb in Adirondack Rock.Climb is somewhat dirty, especially near the top, but is doable regardless and offers a lot of variation. it was cleaned on 8/28/21

Climb It

Up Your Bum

Plumber's Crack

Can be found to the right of a mossy wall and next to a huge tree. Climb up the initial blocks, up a v-shaped cut and then up the crack to the top. A few moves that are a bit hard for 5.7 at the top. Like some SoCo climbs, it can be found to be wet even a few days after rain, dirty and somewhat polished.  

  It can be sort of hard to agree with the name of this route, but it is a good SoCo climb.

Difficult for the grade, this sport climb is a good testpiece for aspiring climbers in the area.

 Climb up the arete, then figure out the sequence passing the roof and face above (crux). Continue up to the fixed anchor.

a super good line especially for the wall, I was surprised to see it wasn’t already in the book

 using the start of up “up your bum” and finishing at the anchors of “where Frenchman dare”

 pretty cruisey climbing but has a certain “spook factor” getting on to the arete that gives beginners a nice chance to feel some exposure

 the climb is easily protected, but watch your rope when you go around the corner, the horizontal crack is the prefect size to inhale your rope, extended placements can avoid it or a strategically placed nut or cam on the corner can keep it out.

Climb up blocky holds to a bolt and an overhang. Pull the overhang to a tight finger crack(crux) then a jug to the chains.

The BJ stands for Bolt Job btw. 

  Follow the bolt line in the left end of the main face, to the right of the blocky depression. Up, under a triangular roof to a funky move to the right of the roof.

V stands for Variation.Follow the first 2 bolts on GK's First BJ, then head straight up into the roof. Climb up the left face of the upper section then onto the anchor ledge. Harder if shorter.

A short climb with a short but decent corner.

 Scramble up the lower blocks to a big ledge, then up the corner to a fixed anchor.

Another short but tough climb just right of Perpetual Frustration Machine, challenges all the way up. Rated 9+ in some places, everyone I've met thinks it's harder.     Start in the corner under the overhang, step onto an easy ledge 2 ft up , move left using a good hold under the overhang, then the hard moves begin as you go up. Anchors at the top.

Named for a big “torpedo” stick we found at the bouquet river the day before

 start just below the undercling jug and fire up the corner straight to the crack.

 surprisingly tough moves after grabbing the undercling jug, gets easier once you gain the crack. Crux comes as you try to switch from the corner below the roof back to the face

 grade might be off by a bit in either direction, but she’s pretty stout!

This being one of the most difficult trad route at the crag, it is rather worthwhile for climbers in this area, or at least as a weekday objective (for more local variety, check out Twin Falls).

 Climb a flake with tricky moves off the deck to a horizontal crack. Thin moves gain the next horizontal. Climb up and right to a big ledge. You can (1) make a hard move just to the left of a blunt arete to climb up to the fixed anchor (2) join the bolted finish of Perpetual Frustration Machine or (3) finish the climb on the ledge at a fixed anchor.

The FA should really be an "as climbed by" since the protection is good and it's likely someone has played around on this line before. 

  A nice little route to warm up for one of the more difficult ones nearby. Climb up a series of ledges along the right facing corner to the dominant overhanging ledge to right of two mossy vertical cracks. Continue to the left of the obvious horizontal crack to the top.

Climb up a corner below the obvious roof. Move right below the roof and continue up the right-facing corner using one of two small cracks(the right one is easier) to access a ledge with a small tree and a fixed anchor. From there it is possible to step right and then scramble up a few moves to the top of the crag.

Up the shallow crack in the middle of two wide moss strips, to the left of the giant tree near the cliff. Very mossy up high for the final few feet, could use a scrub

Worth doing when every climb at SoCo is occupied (which has happened)... Half the climb is a short scramble followed by a handful of moderate moves to the bolts.

 Up a left- rising ramp, then up a right-leaning crack, to the bolted anchor.

 A 5.9 variation climbs the shallow crack along the arête to the right

Start on the right-facing corner. The follow the bolts along a right-leaning crack to a straight-up crack and reach the top ledge.It was cleaned on 8/28/21

A few fun climbs that are very easily accessed. Great for toproping.
