2 out of 5 stars Slabby

But not very technical. High feet, small crimps, a couple neat pockets. Not worth the trek or the high rating in the (albeit brilliant) guidebook, but the hike is wonderful in and of itself.

4 out of 5 stars Ascent Note

It's a nice climb, but not sure it rates all the hype it gets. Ladybug led and thought the rating is soft; I don't, I think it is a solid 5.9.

5 out of 5 stars Sunset Slab

Great route, with a fun mix of face climbing (pockets, edges, and a few slopers). Great exposure at the top of the hill.

Awesome route. Great rock, great scenery, great fun. The hike isnt too bad and totally worth it. Off the beaten path. Great place to get away from the crouds.

4 stars (in the Watts book) might be a little much, I'm thinking.
