This route is top-ropeable from a tree but it should be done as a boulder if you have the means/ambition. Climb on mostly manufactured holds to a tricky crux on a slippery "S carving." A little extra effort cleaning the holds on rappel would be worth your time. Use the tree as your last hold for the airy mantle, and drink some breast melk for muscle recovery.

Two in the Crimp One in the Brimp

Mostly crimpy vertical face. Safest as a top rope, but if you want to send it as a boulder, be sure to clean the holds up top well. There's no clear crux on this route other than avoiding getting sand in your eyes up top. 

As of October 2018, Rocky Glen has officially become a park open to the public. A nice parking lot and new entrance to Rocky Glen has been added to Kickapoo Creek Road. Peoria Park District has recently posted a trail map at the entrance, along with a new trail, that is well marked, and leads to the spray painted sandstone formations. At the opposite end of the small creek that flows through the Glen is an abandoned coal mine entrance that is welded shut.
