This route starts easy, but gets harder than the 5.5 rating suggests.  The crack is easy, but the move out to the face can prove difficult (especially if committed to the crack).  Not a bad route.

It has a couple of tricky spots with body position about 15 feet up then traversers over to the left and shares the chains with Brick in the Wall.

For the most part, this info came from Lambert's and Shull's Selected Climbs in North Carolina.

Climb the arete left of Gastonia Crack(5.4). An overhung flake is the first crux leading to a good ledge to traverse cliff right onto the arete. This is the second crux that leads straight up the arete to a slabby mantle top out. Once on the ledge climb the 'boulder' left on the platform. Top out and scramble to the bolted anchor for (Gastonia Crack and Playground).

This is a fun route as either a first or last climb of the day.  Since it's at the terminus of the trail, access is easy.  It offers fun climbing on big holds.

This is also a popular top-rope but is somewhat harder than its brother (The Wall) next door.

Climb the crux of BFD and then traverse left on ancient pitons through a crux to finish on SSSS.

Right of Mike's Crack, climb the shallow cracks and face to the top.

Climb the crack right of Mikes Crack and So It Goes. Fun introduction to traditional climbing route or an easy top rope set-up for beginning climbers.

Just right of Burn Crack.  Climb the overhanging face to a rounded flake.  Pass 2 bolts and head right, fighting the pump and up to the top.

Just right of the obvious right facing corner (Gastonia Crack).  For full effect start at the crack that diagonals up and right. Climb to a good rest at the prominent horizontal. Sidepull off of an awkward knob in the thin seam above (crux). Continue up the seam to a large ledge 10 feet below the anchors.

Climb the face right of Gastonia Crack(5.4)

Start on the arete and face just left of Gastonia Crack. Traverse across the horizontal with an old pin in it.  Hard moves to a bolt at a 'stance'. Rest up here and climb through the roof to the top anchors

Mostly top roped. This route is missing the hanger on the first bolt.

Locate the bolt with no hanger. Climb to the horizontal and traverse slightly cliff right connecting on to the Black Flag crack system with the last bolt for this route. Pull the roof to the two bolt anchor.

I've never seen anyone attempt this on lead or top rope. I was told that this route went up as an AID route before being freed (cool tidbit of history).

Start on Slimebelly Snakeass Sodhole Skunkpie(5.12a). Traverse cliff right on the low horizontal crack system (past two fixed pins) connecting on to Black Flag Direct(5.13b) and finishing up on Black Flag(5.10d).

Boulder up the powerful overhanging opening moves to some finger jugs at the base of the crack.  Do a couple jam moves and mantle up on a small ledge.  Only a few more face moves separate you from the top.  Walk off.
