Some thoughtful moves.   Start on the immediate right side of the tree (trying to avoid using the tree), then up the face.   Finish on a vague arete whose top is about three feet left of the cap rock. 

warning: The rock on and around this route has not been climbed much yet, and much of the rock is still breakable and loose -- so the belayer and other people should stand far away from underneath the climber.

Some thoughtful moves.   Start on immediate left side of tree (using the tree is permitted).   Up the face, perhaps trending slightly left-ward.

Interesting easier moves in lower section, then creative harder moves in the upper section. 

  Start up the corner. Cross a dirty ledge, then up the face to finish at the cap rock. 

  Variation - "Track of Tears" (5.9-): After finishing up the corner, traverse right about six feet on the dirty ledge, then up mossy wet face to finish on right side of cap rock.

Interesting face and roof moves. 

  Up the face on left side of the big inside corner, without using any holds less than 2.5 feet left from the corner. Then go left, and pull the roof on its left side, then up slab to top.

Delicate sequence on small holds, then easier fun arete climbing. 

  Start on the right side of the arete, then pretty much straight up -- staying "tight" to the arete, not using larger holds out in the middle of the ridge face (which might be part of the next route to the left).   . (Variation easier: Use a larger sloping hold in the middle of the ridge face about eight feet up for the left foot).

Wild fun overhang moves. 

  Up in the big left-facing inside corner, then into the roof/overhang. Step right just below big pancake, then to the top. Or wilder, grab the pancake.

Interesting moves in a great position. 

  Up the four-foot-wide ridge, mostly in its left half, making abundant use of its outside left corner for hands (and sometimes feet). For the first few feet off the ground it helps to put the left foot on the slab to the left of the ridge.   . (Variation more interesting: Start without using the slab to the left).

Worthwhile moves at the difficulty grade, despite a dirty section. 

  Start about 12 feet above two large trees, stepping onto a ledge 8 to 14 inches above the base of the SE-facing wall which forms the right side of the arete which is just right of the crack - (or if that feels too difficult, find a place to step onto that wall higher up the slope). Work diagonally up the face to a ledge, then continue diagonal right, passing just right of a amall tree (without using any holds from the gully of the route Right Nostril) -- up to just left of the notch at the left end of the roof in the left side of the Nose.   Step Right across the notch onto the slab above the roof, and trend right up that to its top. 

  First crux is the first couple of moves diagonaling up from the starting ledge. Seoond crux is just above a ledge after passing by the small tree - (if that feels too hard, can go around it right using the gully).

Worthwhile moves at that difficulty grade. 

  Up the small arete to a ledge at base of the big left-facing inside corner. Diagonal up left in gully that leads to the notch at the left end of the roof in the left side of the Nose. Up onto the slab above the roof, then trend right up that to its top.

A narrow buttress with a broken overhang about eighteen feet up.   Just West (left) from the Beard double-boulder. 

  Can set up top anchor for Top-Rope by scrambling up around right side. 

warning: Loose rock is still a concern here. Belayer or other members of party should not stand anywhere near underneath the climber.
