The route starts a little bouldery, and the first 3 bolts are a series of sidepulls and positive crimps for a very straightforward v3, after that it's 5.8 climbing on the slab above. Two bolt anchor at the top that can also be used to TR the climbs to the left.

Girl you trippin'

  Climb up through the tan and purple paint, and about 10 ft up, you'll use a low sidepull/undercling to fall to the left and catch a side-pulling pinch with your right hand. This is the crux of the climb. Still a lot of dirty rock, so as holds fall off the grade could go up or down. May also be done climbing straight up into the flake using the mono pockets about 15' up, but that involves very straining and precarious lateral movements to get to the obvious corner. Please come and contribute to the beta. I will happily come and bolt it.

Bolt line just right of Landing Strip.  Stay off the crack and on the face and you'll enjoy the full route. Step out left to the crack and you'll drop a full grade as well as be in a awkward place to fall from. Climb the shallow dihedral to the horizontal crack and head right to the chains. You can clip the anchors and climb out the roof but the rock above is less than great so climb delicately. you can belay from bolts on top. I would not suggest top roping from the bottom as there would be bad rope drag. You can setup a TR from the chains no problem.

The beginning starts with somewhat of an undercling that is mostly unnecessary, and the first two bolts are the only challenege. Beyond that it's 5.7 climbing. The first bolt is honestly irrelevant if you're comfortable with a high first clip, otherwise, clipping the first bolt is more tiresome than it's worth.

Start is to the right of Jack's Papa Goo. Follow the crack up. You can walk up the back side of Hobo House facing the park to set up a Top Rope or a small/medium sized rack can be used. 

 The start is a little funky and more of a short face climb but once your in the crack you're good to go. The other funky part is up towards the top about 45-50ft up where the crack widens and goes vertical. Little hand jam and some magic will get you through.  Pick your crux depending on your climbing style.

Set up a top rope and repel down the south side of the formation. It may be easier to belay from the bottom of Jack's Papa Goo for much less rope drag otherwise, it was a perfect setup for a rope solo. This climb has some fun moves, but is depreciated by the many sections with bomber feet. Start in the amphitheatre and fall left onto the face, then go up. 

This is kind of a breakway from Papago that you can easily see when traveling on the 202. It's the obvious mini-butte that looks like it could yield a climb or two. In fact it yields three (currently)It's dirty rock that is much harder than the rock at Papago, but yet somehow different from Camelback. I'm not quite sure what kind of rock it is, if any one kind at all.The crag is west facing and gets shade till close to noon. Bring bolts and a drill and bolt a couple more lines, this could be a halfway decent little "crag" No clue who bolted it, what they used, or how old it is... Climb at your own risk
