This is to the left of the main wall at Isabella. Length-wise, it can be done as one pitch, but you need to extend runners at top of "first pitch." Or you can can practice your multipitch skills and belay at intermediate anchor. The first pitch ends at small ledge with ring anchors. First pitch is 7 bolts. Start up lower angled terrain. Climb through the steep block chimney type feature. The second pitch is 5.9. Traverse left from belay ledge and gain left dihedral. Utilize face holds, the crack, and the left arete. Finished by going up arete and not dihedral.  Steep with good exposure. second pitch has 6 bolts plus anchors. Given the terrain and wandering nature, toproping from top anchors would not be ideal. You can set a top rope on first pitch, which is a good beginner climb on its own. A 60 m rope just gets ya back home.

Begin below an alcove. Climb up and gain ledge with pine tree with woodpecker holes. From the slab, continue through the overhang to gain the upper crack. The last 25-30 feet is stellar. Steep clean rock with a good crack.

Begin on far right side of main wall below an obvious jug rail about 6-7 feet up. Make some bouldery moves for sustained overhanging climbing. Eases up when the overhang ends. The first good hold you move to is loose, but lots of folks pulled hard on it. Will likely be bolted in 2021.

Climb up through a blocky dihedral to gain an upper flake system. Good exposure and good views.

Fun route with a mix of thuggy and technique. Start on right hand sidepull/pinch. Move up to a left hand jug. From there, make a big dead point to right hand positive edge. From there, unlock the sequence of sidepulls, pockets, and crimps. Excellent movement on steep rock. Need 100 feet of anchor material to easily set top rope.

Mystery Jam is the obvious line at Isabella.  Start on the face to a cruxy throw.  Work your way up to the beautiful crack.  Continue up past a few committing jug moves to easier ground.  The top is marked by a fixed nut and pin.

A small satellite crag just around the corner from Slugg's. Lots to explore here still. The best access to the top is a gully towards left of crag past bollocks; there is also a good access gully to climbers’ right of main wall. To set top ropes, you will need a long static rope. A 60m rope is necessary to top rope from the very top.
