5 out of 5 stars Moran SB right

scouted the approach the day before. ran into a moose on the approach around dawn, but we managed to bushwack around him. approach slabs straight-forward; route-finding pretty straight-forward; crux pretty much just a straight-forward grunt undercling- there is a placement for a smaller minicam- maybe I used blue alien? belayer should be on-task to let out some slack so leader does not pendulum into hideous jagged corner if he/she takes a fall when running out through the crux! get the route done in a timely fashion because the rappel route was VERY challenging to find even with plenty of daylight! retreat after the hanging slab traverse may be very difficult in bad weather!
