Description:
Thin slab climbing on dishes between Curving Crack and Mufasa. Option to start slightly left up seam and dishes but traverse back over thin varnished face. 3rd edition guide rates this a 10a*** but risky, thin start probably makes this more of a 10b.Descent Options:
Lower off.

Thin and challenging
Favorite camping spot in the Hills. Did the left start variation but crossed at the wrong spot...either higher or lower one move would have been better.

Red Point ascent by:
Scary anchors.
The anchor bolts at the top of this route wiggle in their holes. Scary to lower from these but no other option. I also found two other top anchors which wiggling bolts in the corridors. Alabama hills rock quality sucks.
