One evening after climbing at the Garden I talked to a couple guys heading up West Point Crack, a 3 pitch 5.8. The pro is mixed. Here the leader is preparing to belay his follower after the first pitch. I enjoyed the color that the sunset added to the already red rock.

This small slab has several variations which provide a pretty good range of ratings. Great for the first time climber or the climber looking for a quick warm up and a beautiful view.

Hauling a group of 8 to 12 year olds up the practise slab.
