Top Rope ascent by:
First Slab
First time outdoors. This was a fun route and didn't seem to have too much loose rock. I only dislodged one rock the whole way up. Stopped at the first anchors due to 60 meter rope.

lots of loose rock, nice long run to do in one pitch, fun when it starts raining three bolts in!

much more fun than expected
cleaner and more thoughtful than all the hype alludes to. still cleaned off a few loose bits. second pitch is dull but nice view from the top.

Nice climb
Fun slab dancing to a technical and committing 5.9+ crux just below the lip. Lots of loose stuff, but not nearly as dangerous as it's neighbors. My 70 meter barely got us up and back, but stopping at the first set of anchors still gets you 80% of the way, past the crux, and through the best parts of the climb.
Definitely wear a helmet.
