Location: WY : Ten Sleep Canyon : Slavery Wall : Happiness in Slavery (5.12a/b)

Comments: The Location text for this route is all screwed up. It should read: The route between Calm Like a bomb 12d to the left and Head Like a Hole .12a/b to the right. It is the third route up hill from the roof routes and begins just right of the small inside corner/cave that is the start to CLaB.

Comments: The location of this route is left of the crack that forms the intro to Schools Out. This is one of four routes that begin on the slab and transitions into steeper terrain above. Perhaps a better start is to go up the Schools Out crack then step left to join the left leaning finish of Night Hog, avoiding the unpleasantness of the techy slab climbing. This was Hueys 3rd route at the Mondo and a sneaky little test of shallow pocket strength right at the end.

Comments: Of the handful of people I've talked to that have redpointed this route, all agree that it is .13a, albeit a soft one. Which begs the question is it harder than the other 12+ climbs on the wall. I don't think so. I can't do the crux move on Aunt Jemima .12d, nor have I sent Calm Like A Bomb .12d, which is an enduro route that I bolted and passed onto a friend for the FA. Yet it took just two goes to do The Burden. Hell, I have fallen off Screaming Night Hog .12c right at the end at least six... more >>

Comments: A great route that really checks in around .11c. Sandbagging is fun for all grades!!! This too is a Mike Decker route.

Comments: I think Boobies is to the right of Beer Bong. Left is Wired Me Awake. Anchor will be repaired this summer.

Comments: This route, all though quite long, has only 20 feet of serious climbing. A good 40+ feet of typical slavery slab climbing leads to hero jug haulin out the steep corner. When that peters out there is a .12a move to a great pocket to recompose for the crux. Im pretty sure Huey crimped ladder style up those shitty crimps, which seems like it could be .13a. I found a way around and was able to reach past half of this crimp ladder which seemed an easier way for me. Whatever. It should be menti... more >>
