BugCON 4: almost too intense for climbing, DEET required
4 out of a possible 5
Climbing Area Index / Dickey Mountain / The Standard Route (5.6)
Directions:  30 ft right of Boat Ramp you come to a 5 ft high left facing corner at the base of a low angle slab. Scramble up this corner and the right margin of the slab to access Mike's Other 5.9.
Description: 
    Pitch 1: From the highest patch of trees follow a right facing flake system until you can move left to the right facing wall. Follow the crack that arches right until beneath the crux slab with a bolt. Pass this to a 2 bolt belay. 5.6

    Normal rack Variation: This is the preferred way. Instead of moving left climb straight up past a flake and climb directly to the crux slab.

Gear: Standard rack + draws
Descent: Rappel 130 ft or climb easily 80 ft to the top.
