Flash ascent by:
kinda scary
felt a bit sketched until i got higher up and got a nice nut in. this would be rated at least 5.10a if it was a bolted climb in the red.

Top Rope ascent by:
cool route
I took a ride on a top rope someone put up and it was a fun route. I do trad too, and I agree looking at it from the ground up it looks blank. I climbed with an eye for the gear and there were indeed options for nut placements and maybe micro cams - a nice horizontal and several v-slots as you get higher up. It would probably have scared me quite a bit as I went since you probably wouldn't want to pass up or miss any placements!
It was a fun climb though, with nice crimps and smooth face climbing moves.

FUN!
The first time I have not placed anything other than stoppers for protection. My first 5.9 onsight on gear.

FANTASTIC!!
Awesome, techy slab! Looking at it from the ground you'd wonder how the hell you're ever going to protect it, but once you climb past the bolt, the nut placements come just when you need them.
Very fun and memorable climb!
