Description:

From crack(first two pitches), to face, and back to crack. The second pitch offers a choice of fun liebacking, and chimney. Pick the chimney, you'll feel like a kid again. It's highly recommended on a hot, sunny day.

4 out of 5 stars Fun first experience of Yosemite slab

You can free solo up the first part. Lots of dishes and texture. Great to practice balance.

4 out of 5 stars Fun under the flake

Hard climbing on slick rock, but it was a joy to have the novelty of climbing under the flake.
