Description:

A ten minute aerobic hike above Domestic Dome brings you to a small dome with Rare Earth's obvious curving cleaned stripe. Climb this lovely slab past 9 or 10 closely spaced bolts to the top. Take no more than three draws if you're training to Joshua Tree and call it 5.9- if you're going to New Hampshire's White Mountains.

2 out of 5 stars Rare Earth

An uncrowded and unusually safe technical slab climb. No chalk on this when I founf it despite over two weeks of great weather in Leavenworth.
