Bullocks commands attention on Suicide Rock’s right flank, offering a crisp, focused trad climb that shifts from a steep undercling sequence to an approachable face finish. The route starts with a left-facing corner just left of the Flatman Chimney, presenting climbers an immediate technical challenge that demands careful footwork and confident hand jams. The rock here is solid, with holds that feel carved with purpose, inviting climbers to trust their fingers and commit to a dynamic, undercling move that hooks the rhythm of the climb. Beyond this initial juggle, Bullocks eases into a slabby face, where balance and precise feet matter as much as upper body strength.

Stretching about 80 feet, this single-pitch route is a perfect day climb for those who want to blend steep technical climbing with a classic desert trad experience. The gear is straightforward: small to medium placements line the route, allowing for secure protection without combing for obscure cams—ideal for climbers looking to refine their traditional rack skills without overloading their packs.

The rock sits exposed to morning sun, making early starts wise during warmer months, while the afternoon offers refuge in patches of shade cast by the surrounding granite spires. As you climb, the desert air hums with the quiet energy of the high desert ecosystem—dry pine needles rustle at your feet and the wind plays through the chaparral below, daring you onward with every step.

Once at the top, the summit offers a gratifying vantage point of Suicide Rock and its neighboring formations, with views stretching out toward the rugged Desert Mountain foothills. The descent involves a straightforward rappel, an efficient way down that demands standard rappel skills and a moment’s care to avoid rope drags on coarse granite.

Bullocks is an inviting challenge: technical enough to push your trad climbing limits, yet accessible for those with basic rack confidence. The route's blend of steep moves, solid protection, and desert exposure makes it a versatile choice throughout the climbing season—but especially rewarding in the cooler months. Pack plenty of water, plan your approach and descent carefully, and prepare for a climb that sharpens your skills and your appreciation for California’s iconic granite.
