Magic Cactus
The easiest route on the main wall at the Stupa Crag. You’ll find the Magic Cactus start on the left side of the wall next to a large prickly pear cactus. Climb this and you can set up a top rope for “Crystal Magic” and “Pocket Vortex” on the main wall.
A continuous series of well protected 5.8-ish moves. If you don't get the beta perfect, it may feel more like 5.9. A series of bolts protect all the moves except near the top. You'll may want to carry a 1" wide cam and slip it into a pocket near the top of the climb. Without the cam, there is a 15' to 20' runout on 5.8ish
