This area offers
beautiful steep yellow rock with edges, pockets and tufas created
to be climbed. Many single-pitch 12's are to be found here; most
are very good and some continue up the overhanging wall, where the
climbing gets even harder.
On the east
side of the Outrage, bulging overhangs studded with hanging tufas
compose the Bronco Bowls. A long pitch brings one to the starting
caves from where one may continue via several radically overhanging
5.12's and 13's.

Celestial Omnibus,
12b. One of the very best the Potrero has to offer, this route looks
outrageously overhung from below (and it is!). A tricky, long 11c
pitch (Steel Pulse) gets you to a high ledge below some ominous
tufa-strewn overhangs. Hang it out as you lunge from bucket to bucket.
It's hard to believe you can fall off holds this big, but alas,
many do.
