That sure looks like Midway Rock, between Sugarbun and Sugarloaf. The routes might be, (L to R) Flight Deck 11b/cR, Self Abuse 10b, The Diagonal 9, and Undercling 8. I haven't been there in a quite a while and the drawing in the guidebook isn't exactly like your photo but it may just be from a different perspective.

This is definately not Midway Rock.
Self Abuse is a steep, miserable offwidth/chimney;
aptly named -- and best suited for those with a
masochistic bent...
We saw the above "routes" last year.
What a waste of good hangers!
It is possible to walk up at least
a couple of them in non-sticky approach shoes.
That would make them -- uhh -- third class...
No 5.11, or even 5.10 here!
Does anyone know the clown(s) who violated this rock?

Like I said, it's been a long while since I've been there, about 19 years, my memory might be fading. I pulled out the new guidebook and the drawing looked vaguely similar to Chris's picture. Maybe not.

Hey,
That is NOT middway rock unless it's the backside of it(the up hill side. ) The climbers trail goes right by it...It's almost vertical with an ugly ow slitting the center of it.
