Start in the middle of the face with your toe in a hole about waist high, as for Big Step. Step up and head straight up until standing in the obvious big hole about 8 feet up. Continue up, doing some high thin moves while avoiding stepping off to the left.

The preliminary pistol squat problem of the Big Hole , but escaping lamely up and left. Start with your foot in the big hole around waist height and make your way up the slab exiting left. 

Pull onto the slab using underclings and trend straight up using small crimps and ribs in the rock. Sloped topout onto the slab of rock behind the wave.

A variation to The Wave that uses careful body tension while starting on an improbable looking undercling.

Start as for The Arch, but stay low and traverse left to finish up Big Step

Start standing in the center of the Great Slab. Step your left foot up into the small hole and let the games begin. Technical smearing and small handholds await.  

  The hardest moves are in the first 10 feet or so. After that, it eases off somewhat in difficulty but the combination of balancey moves and increasing height keep your attention until the end.  

  An aesthetic and obvious line. The least contrived line on the boulder, though still slightly contrived.

Start sitting slightly right of ramp climb up and left, manteling the lip to the right of the top out for the Wave Traverse. Right leaning crack in face is OFF ROUTE.

Stand start at the base of the broken slab. Walk your way straight up to the big crack in the middle of the wall and continue straight up using good holds on the slab up to the next horizontal seam from which you can easily move up to the lip and an easy topout. 

Left side of "The Great Slab" boulder. To the right of the block. Climb slab past some under-clings.

Super fun traverse with cool movement and foot beta. Start far left on a jug with you left foot down on a big foothold out over the void.  Traverse the lip with the difficult transition into the beautiful crack. continue to traverse and top out in the notch. Using the ramp below the crack makes this much easier (V2ish), the old school/full value way of doing it (V3ish) was without the ramp.

 Probably a bit easier than Mack's traverse if you use the ramp.

Slab with 2 or 3 ways to the top.  Easy slab good warm up which gets more difficult as you move towards the right.

Start on the lowest jug in the right near the bulge and run off the bulge to the y shaped crack at the top.

Start standing on the left end of the small boulder with good feet. Move straight up the arête-ish feature using good, knobby slopers and top out. Straightforward and short.

Sit start at the base of the Wave crack. Jam up the crack, but escape out the little notch to the left. The low ramp is off for your feet. 

  Variation, same grade - When you are in the notch, traverse the edge to the right (FA- Chuck Boyd)

Start standing at far right side of boulder with good hands in small crack. Climb up to lip and traverse left to top out for Wave Sitdown.

Start sitting at base of crack. Follow crack up and right to top out as for Wave Traverse.

Stand start on an edge at about waist height below the scoop, pull on and get high feet to move up to the good holds on the edge of the scoop and cracks to get up to the easy slab portion of the topout. 

Start at the base of the obvious arete, pull on and make your way to the top by laybacking on good edges with smear feet the whole way to the top. 

Stand onto the slab with good feet and then move straight up through small holds to a slopey finish. 

Starting on right side of slab, climb to top without using the arete on the right.

Way to the right is a small slab close to the water. Climb the right side using a cool pocket/rockover move.

Stand start (or sit, doesn’t really change the grade) on huge feet in the center of the small boulder. Pull on with some okay hands and slap straight up to the obvious, sloping shelf. Find some feet to rock up on (I found a left highstep to be helpful), and top out.

Hard to miss this boulder if you are walking along the road.  A few tough slab climbs with the always fun Wave Traverse on the back side.
