This is the furthest right route on Irok.  The start is somewhat uphill on a sloping ramp.  The first 3 bolts are the crux involving slab and face climbing.  Near the top, step left onto the steep face and search for holds.  Care must be taken in the vicinity of the roof to avoid loose rock.  This is the easiest route at the crag.

MOAB

MOAB turned out to be an interesting jug haul up some of the cleanest rock on the crag. There is a thin balance move clipping the crux bolt, but it is made with a clip just below the waist. The top was a tad dirty, but not particularly troublesome. This was a fun route with lots of interesting features. 5.11c may be a bit generous if you get the crux clip in from the right - the move then being made with a top rope.

This is the third route from the left on Irok featuring overhanging climbing for the first 30 feet.  The crux is between the second and third bolt and is followed by some strenuous, but slightly easier climbing to a slab. The headwall above the slab is about 5.10b.  Powerful and technical climbing on not so painful holds make this one of the better outings at the crag.  Some of the bunker busters launched off of here made it all the way to the creek. Watch for wasps in the crack in the lower part of the slab.

This is one cool route for Clear Creek that doesn't get as much traffic as it deserves.

Climb through some choss to get to the third bolt, and then launch through a series of deadpoints on slopey jugs until a balancy topout to the easy slab above. It is sustained throughout, though I thought there was a definite crux involving a crimp and a toss from a sloper.

An easy scamper to the second bolt sets you up for some long reaches from a sloping shelf and sidepulls. Camp at the jugs, and prepare for the steep crimps above. Sequential and sharp pulls follow for the next three bolts with a long move to a decent rail. Clip and sprint through the remaining crimps to a stance above the lip. Get your slab focus honed and balance your way on easier climbing to the anchor. This has solid rock the whole way.

One can traverse right under the second bolt and follow the large flake up to the jugs if so inclined. This is an easier entry than straight up but arguably less classic.

The second bolt may be a stretch for shorter climbers.

KTA offers up thin cruxy climbing in the first 30 feet and a bullet proof slab above. The lower section is crimpy, thin, and reachy if you are under six feet tall.  The first bolt seemed oddly placed, it would be trivial to place it several feet higher, moving the second up a tad as well. The first is clipped below the waist, if you start climbing from the corner on the right. While the crux is brief, it is thin and sharp, so come with fresh tips. Overall, quite a nice route, albeit a bit short.

This is the third route from the right side of Irok.  The route features a low angle face giving way to ever steeper climbing.  The rock is generally good; however, as with all Clear Creek routes, it's a good idea to belay from a protected area.  This route serves as a good warm up for the crag.

The grungy start of Towelhead gives way to solid climbing above. The initial difficulties begin after clipping the first bolt and involve a blind reach...enough said. Personally, I thought that the start could be cleaned up considerably, too much of what you are required to stand on looks as though it could bust off in a heart beat. The route still needs a bit of brushing, but this should not deter anyone from climbing it - it will clean up nicely after a bit of traffic.
