After hiking to the summit of Little Si we reconed the climbing areas on the way back down

The first areas we hit were WORLD WAR I, THE WOODS, and THE BRITISH AISLES these areas are located on the eastern side of Little Si therefore protected from the direct sun light. The areas were thick with trees and somewhat dark.  There were plenty of folks out on a nice fall day enjoying the dry weather.  The area seemed to have a variety of climbs ranging from a few 5.9's to  5.12c   Further down the trail were BLACK STONE, REPO, and AWOL WALLS.  We took a quick walk around these 3 areas as well. They had more sunlight and plenty of bolt protected climbs. Routes here started as low as 5.8
