Description 

Labor Dome is a trad rock with 3 routes listed in the latest book I have access to. There is at least one additional line on this rock, and all are traditional. The rock's westwardly aspect makes it a good morning destination in the heat, or mid-day to afternoon destination in the summer.

The three routes documented on this rock are: Working Overtime (5.9), A Woman's Work is Never Done (5.10c), Time and A Half (5.10d). One more is to be described here as: Part-Timer (5.7). It is not presumed to be a F.A., but the name was unknown. None of these climbs are "super" but all seem worth doing if you are in the area.

To descend, walk some distance to the south, behind and over a boulder or two, and then down the west to some large boulders, then back North to the base of the climbs.

Getting There 

Locate this rock by going through Steve's Canyon, and an additional 150-200 yards North, on the left side (east) is Hit Man Rock, on the Right is Labor Dome. Labor Done is easily distinguished from other surrounding rocks by the small square roof on the left side and the much larger rounded roof on the right side, about 20' off of the ground.
