Start up the lower angle pillar all the way to the right. Easy fins and huge holds till anchors. The wall warm up. Great for hot days since it stays in the shade most of the day!

This is currently an anomaly in the Bay Area, a spectacular 4 pitch Sport Route!  Start on either Standard Issue or White Flag as the 1st pitch.

P2- 5.10b: Head up the vertical huecos/pockets on the red wall above the belay, then up easier block rock eventually heading slightly left to the anchor.

P3- 5.11b: Up easy rock till the overhanging headwall on steep crimps and big moves between good pockets, sidepulls, and underclings. Clip the Leeper bolts that are painted black (line used to be an oil aid bolt ladder) but don't sweat it it, as there are closely spaced regular bolts nearby! Tackle the final bulge on huge holds and then traverse left to anchors.

P4- 5.10b: The final pitch is super featured and fun up an increasingly vertical wall to just slightly overhung right before the crux and the anchors.

To finish the route either rap the route, or have the 2nd pull the lip and wedge themselves in the gully about 20 feet from the rim. The last person can stay clipped in with a long loop for the final moves over the lip and then just reach back down and unclip the anchors. Walk off to the East.

This killer route tackles the left side of the hanging pillar on slab then up the bulge headwall.  This is the best option for a 1st pitch leading to Aloha Patrol.

Up the lower angle scoop then pull into the small alcove and then tackle the steeper wall above.

Start in the crack alcove. Climb the left wall to a large cobble, then transfer onto the steep pillar above. The "Thank God" cobble quickly gives way to steep jug hauling on awesome features.

Head up the slabby rock down low aiming for the large embedded cobble. The line wanders slightly due to less than ideal rock. Once standing on the the huge rock, fire up the steeper headwall with intermitten hard moves.

Up the slab section of rock just left of the dihedral. Shares anchors with Fist. Great for hot days since it stays in the shade most of the day!

Head up the face to the left of the crack without using the crack to wallow you body up is 11c.  Using the crack as a true crack climb makes this a 5.10.

This "adventure" route starts in the gully between Defector and Warcraft. This route is has amazing position. Unfortunately (IMO) this mixed climb will wallow in obscurity due to the need to use pro down low where the rock quality is questionable. The gear may hold but I would consider it mostly psychological.

P1-5.5: Start up the mossy and chossy 3rd class gully, then traverse left at the top to an anchor. The final moves are the 5.5 while the lower gully is mostly 4th Class Moss/Choss.

P2-5.7: Traverse right from the belay towards the obvious corner and fire up using mostly gear. Top out and traverse right and up to the base of the huge dihedral above.

P3-5.11a: Take the overhanging moss/gritty crack following bolts and possible intermediate gear placements to the top of the cliff. Use the small

scrub oak over the rim for your anchor.

Start up the ramp then have fun over the steeper hanging wall above.  Gets a bit crimpy at the crux.  Can be used as a starting 1st pitch to Aloha Patrol.

Start up the right side of the slab then proceed up cool features to 2 large imbedded jugs. Grab these and start the crux sequence by staying direct over the bulge. Exciting all the way to the anchors!

Up the large corner and crack on steep bulgy rock loaded with jugs but still requires a hand jam or two plus stemming and body position based moves.
