Access Issue: Gate Buttress Area Recreational Lease: Climbs on Church Buttress above vault remain closed
Details
Climbers Partner with LDS Church on Stewardship of Little Cottonwood Canyon Climbing
June 1st, 2017:The Salt Lake Climbers Alliance (SLCA), the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints (LDS Church), and Access Fund announce the signing of an unprecedented lease for 140 acres in Little Cottonwood Canyon (LCC). The parcel, known as the Gate Buttress, is about one mile up LCC canyon and has been popular with generations of climbers because of its world-class granite.
The agreement secures legitimate access to approximately 588 routes and 138 boulder problems at the Gate Buttress for rock climbers, who will be active stewards of the property. The recreational lease is the result of several years of negotiations between LDS Church leaders and the local climbing community.
Access Note: The climbs on the Church Buttress above the vault as well as the Glen boulders that have been traditionally closed will remain closed.
Please help us steward this area and leave no trace.

Description
The Chris Minneci Memorial Route is a great clean slab. This is a true sport route, so its a good route to work up to more runout affairs like the Final Link. The first bolt is a little high and after the thin crux so a stick clip wouldn't be a bad idea for the timid. The rest is delightful 5.9 up some cool features.
I wouldn't argue if you want to call getting to the first bolt 5.10.
There is an odd, maybe unfinished route just to the right of this - 2 bolts above a crack with a bail biner on the top one.

Location
This route is well above the Egg proper.
Trudge up the gully west of the egg. Keep going as the gully winds along the right side of a clean slab. Just before reaching the bolted slab Eat the Meek, go right on a faint trail through the scrub oak. After a short distance, go up a narrow scree filled gully to the beautiful slab. The last part is tough going on the way up.
