The low crux of Ruby Slippers. I am about to be re...
Description
The crux is near the bottom. It is a great sequence with interesting feet. Pass through to easier climbing above. If the route was a little more sustained at the grade, it would probably get three stars. Depending on your sequence, the crux will feel pretty hard or not so bad.
Location
The route just left of the u-shaped tree. There is a distinctive curved seam near the bottom.

I think this route has an 11a sequence that I did not figure out. Somehow you can go left at the start rather than going right or something like that. Took me forever to get it going right.

i think if the crux were halfway up the route it would be solid 5.11 like it says in SQ2 but since it's right at the bottom and you're not pumped yet methinks it's not quite so hard. i can't onsight 5.11.
That is how things get sandbagged. "I can't lead..." so it must only be this hard. Maybe you are getting better. Or maybe it is easier. A letter here or there, who cares.
