Lower crux with fun moves all through the climb.  A little slabby and balancy as well.  Really fun moves pulling the roof at the end to clip anchors.

Climb up the red colored smear on the wall. 

The crux is the start of the route. This is a good litle route. A lot of fun moves can be found in the gully. You can stem, chimeny, or just smear your way up.

Cool line with a low crux and the another small one after the last bolt.

Climb up and through a short overhang (fun!), past 2 bolts (crux at second bolt). After surmounting the bulge, scramble up a low 5th class crack system, with a maybe 5.8 mossy crux getting up to the anchor (Step left to share anchor with Ebee).

This is a fun route especially on lead. The guide book says that it is a 5.10a but I would give it a 5.9 just because the main face is mostly slab with great stances and plenty of places to rest. Also I climbed this when the rock was wet inside the crack and it was still an easy climb for me. The crux is at the very top when you have to pull around and behind the prominent point.   The only bad thing about the route is that rope drag is almost unavoidable especially if you're setting a TR.

This route is located 10 feet right of The Meanest Flower.

Direct start to Blood Beets. Pull hard through an initial boulder problem to a standing rest. Tackle a precision pockets section, then go straight into the coolest part of the route; 2 bulges of requiring some sort of wizardry to navigate. Ahhhhmazing!

Boulder up to a big ledge (currently the crux by a long shot because it is super mossy). Once there, enjoy fun, sequential and sometimes improbable technical climbing to the top. A good and varied route for sure.

This is a slab route that looks much easier from the ground.  The book Vertical Heartland has it listed as a 5.7, so I kept the rating.  It felt closer to a 5.9 to me.

I thought this was a really great, very sustained technical climb. Epic shallow-stemming crux, sequential foot traverse. Small holds, but you don't have to pull super hard because the rock is vertical to less-than-vertical. Awesome. Climbs more like a Smith Rock 12a than most Jackson routes.

The hardest trad line in the canyon. Climb the thin crack till it's turns into a wide crack then top out.

Climb the bulging, three part roof network. 

Open book gully.  Harder than it looks...

Climb the not so easy start on Easy Gully. Gently reach right to clip the first bolt. Two back to back crux sections await you. Crank through the first and desperatly balance through the second.

Interesting moves through the first three bolts and then a little run out to the fourth bolt.

After entering the canyon via the dogwalk keep right. Hike downhill and cross a small creek, then continue following the trail back uphill where it joins back up with the cliff line. One of the first predominant features you will notice is a large detached boulder. This is the Yosemite Slab, continue past it to reach the Royal Arches Wall. Begin looking for the route Tina's Soul Food Kitchen in an easy to spot gulley as pictured here               

Tina’s Soul Food Kitchen      . Once you find this, the rest of the routes continue to your left.

 This sector has a good concentration of routes and will tend to be busy on crowded weekends.
