Note: The red lines shown on the route photos are meant to be a rough guide for the way the route actually goes. Lines are drawn adjacent to the route in order to show features on the exact line like cracks. Use your judgment when climbing and do not blindly follow the lines shown.

Yes, there are cracks at the Gunks and many of them can be found just behind Retribution on the Mental Block. Spin a few Gunks horizontals 80 degrees and you end up with a unique set of leaning cracks. If you attempt some of the hands to offwidth cracks, you may want to consider taping up. Quartzite crystals tend to be quite unforgiving. Many parties toprope the routes on the Mental Block, although most of the cracks can be led.
