It has good holds, perfect for the beginner to intermediate climber. It also a great crack/nose for those more skilled to practice techniques on.

Ejecta

Slightly overhanging route on the south inlet corner has good solid holds for feet and hands, little bit wide placement for both feet and hands as you work your way up to the bulge once over that obstacle it's straight forward to the top.

Hit it at low tide or the pockets can be damp. Bring extra chalk to speed the process

A nice crack, great holds some longer reaches and steeper the The Plume. May want a spotter as there is a back killing rock if you happen to fall but a nice lil line none the less.

Ever so slightly pitched back, enough that you can feel it when your about halfway up, with a bulge type area at the top that you have to pull up and over, a solid fun route straight up the south face

Slightly overhanging line, footing follows a crack running diagonally up the route, this side takes a bit longer to dry as the sun isn't hitting it and can be slimy from the ocean low down, the crux move here is coming up over the edge gotta stretch with your right foot and get it up on top so you can pull your body up

Start like your doing the Plume, at the crown skirt right over the inlet, follow the crown on around the circumference of the boulder, and then down back onto the opisate side of the beach, fun route when the tide is in as you are above the waters of the Cook Inlet.

Same start hold as ejecta but immediately break R to a small sloping (often damp) crimp, blast up to a L hand side pull, bump left hand up again, set feet and jump for the lip. top out straight up on crimps

Start on the ground climb up onto the bulge skirt to the right slightly and then push to the top

This route is virtually all arm, there is slight divots for footing but you can't get any power off them, once you get to the lip and position it's a long reach over the top to find some rather sharp fingering and then more upper body power to wrench yourself on over again your feet are positioning but barely powering, quite a workout.

This is a lava boulder. Very solid with not much crumble. Its at least 15 feet tall. Has got great holds all over it, some can be quite sharp and also includes some sweet cracks. A lot of fun and allows you to get creative with the climbs and techniques. Plus being right on the beach is relaxing and its secluded.
