| Eminent Domain (7a+) | This version starts on independent bolts, and goes left into first route I bolted, a right version ends on "The Easement". Checks in somewhere around 11+/12- I'll see what else breaks or cleans up and what others think. Great techy boulder intro to more powerful juggy bouldering to some "Go-y" upper enduro that really doesn't back off until the anchor clip. |

| Spanish Day Dream (7b+) | Really good. Really had to fight on the send but started recovering at the choss jug and kneebarred my way to the top. I've climbed harder 12 C's and easier 12 D's |

| Spanish Day Dream (7b+) | Very good and straight forward pulling downlow to lots of Tufas up high. Power down to 4-wheel low up high. I could see slash grade on this one (5.12b/c). 9 kneebars for me with a pretty techy left dropknee for the 3bolt crux but flows very well. This route gets wet quick so get it while it's dry. |

| Tufa King High (6c) | Definitely the best way to warmup. Climb the Bribe, don't clip mussys and step right to link bolt. Finish on the end of Tufa King. |

| Vanilla Bea (7b+) | Amazing route bolted by AC. This route can change difficulty very quickly depending on how dry or wet everything is. If it's dry this rig can be closer to 12b....if wet it can be 12c...12c/d... or just completely unclimbable. Classic tufa resistance for bolts 1-4 to the Choss Bridge rest. Than classic Arkansas jug power climbing to a thin pumpy crux guarding the upper headwall. |

| Tufa King High (6c) | Climb the Bribe to anchors and clip bolt out right. Joins last 2 bolts of Tufa King Cool and stays dry. The new "Go to" warmup |

| Why Not? (7a) | Move up to the 5th bolt of the Bribe and cut right, do the undercling traverse cut of NSC and finish on TKC. just another dry variation to keep |

| Not So Cool (7a+) | Link from the first 3-4 bolts of the Bride and go right into new blue terrain. Bigger movement on good holds leads to a powerful and techy undercling crux heading into TKC above the main crux. Finish on last ~4bolts of TKC. stays dry ~12a |

| Tufa King Cool (7b) | Probably figured out 6 or 7 ways to do that middle crux and then JG and I hybridized some new beta that drops this route to 12- now and just lets you keep charging instead of dropping into 4-Low. Don't need kneepads this way but I did because I'm as weak as a new born babe. |

| The Warmup (6b+) | Somewhere in that 10+/11- minus. Completely vaporized a big undercling jug on the O/S burn. Pretty wild to grab what I thought was a huge "solid" jug load up and find myself shooting straight out into space with a 100 dice size cubes flying by me. That don't happen on sandstone. Good pumpy warmup that makes you work your feet and body and gets your head in the game for the bigger rigs. |

| Train to Bangkok (6c+) | If you know how to use your knees and the route is dry this is 5.11+. Quickly increases difficultly sans kneepad and if the big jug tufa pinches are wet. Short but awesome Tufa Bashing down low. (Back Log, guess on date) |

| Tufa King Cool (7b+) | The name speaks for itself. Crag classsic. |
