This climb begins at the same spot as Fakie but veers left of the arete, following the face. It has a few solid holds and a straightforward top-out. The landing is safer compared to other routes on the boulder, making it an ideal warm-up.

Starting on right-facing holds on the blank section between Fakie and Powderbird, this climb avoids the arete. The crux involves using sloper-crimps, mantles, and thumb presses to reach the sloper jug at the lip. Another option is to grab a right-hand tooth a few feet from the top, then traverse left to the arete and finish on Fakie, which is slightly less demanding. The original line is uncertain.

Climb the face just right of the prominent crack feature, moving upward and angling slightly to the right. The crack features are within reach, but it's hard to know which ones are on or off, so just use what feels good to you.

This climb begins on solid low edges on the left side of the northwest corner of the Sam Trap boulder, sharing the same start as Fakie Face to the left. From there, it heads straight up the arete.

Climb the obvious center crack on the west face of the Sam Trap Boulder.

Climb the face to the left of the diagonal crack feature.
