Start on a quartz band and decipher a set of thin (but not sharp) holds that lead to jugs around the third bolt. Move through the slight roof on interesting holds and slab it out to the chains.

No longer the easiest route at Crags Against Humanity but still one of the shortest, this pleasant 5.6 meanders up a blocky arete sampling a wide variety of holds along the way.

 The route starts on a flat jug in a triangular cut-out at the base of the wall. Alternatively, one can traverse in from the left side and clip the 2nd bolt or use a drone to set up the top rope.

Water streak right of broken looking crack/seam. Mostly face but a finger lock and a gaston or two will help.

They say love is free, but as for me, there's no mystery, mine can be bought with pastries and coffee. - Seuss 10:19I've always loved a route that teaches you something about movement. With a ton of positive holds in a variety of orientations, there's plenty to be learned in just 40 ft of what often feels like gym climbing. The crux might feel thin, but you'll find great feet appear just when you need them. Tie in, gear up and enjoy this fun roadside distraction.

While the legend of the Costco Cowboy is long and complicated, the route named in his honor is not. Climb the corner just left of Dronemaster Flash clipping bolts to the right, and eventually exiting onto the face above.

A series of moves on to good stances. Super easy but still climbing.

Short route with a layback start and a big blocky hold at the top. Need to beat on this one a bit as it would hurt someone. Did this one ropeless but it might take some gear. I will probably add some bolts and anchors to this at some point as it adds another shorty for people to do. This and all the others at the Short Stack will get you around 200 feet of climbing.

One good punch to a good rail around the second bolt gets you past the rough part. Now just parry you way to the anchors.

This is the short, south facing wall across the drainage from the Draw Pile and Discard Pile. Routes are new, so be aware of loose rock and prepare accordingly.

 The two original routes put up by Kemper Brightman and Luke Bertelsen have been added to by Eric Fazio-Ricard, and there is now a handful of very short, easy climbs on this formation.  A few big trees at the base offer a nice respite from the sun, and the blocky gully will break into a nice hang-out with some traffic.
