Just south of the North Slabs sits a rt. facing dihedral with a tall broad clean wall on it's right. (It's the second corner S of North Slab I think) A fantastic balance line climbs past a few good crimps at the start, pinches a couple of "Nipples" and finishes on sloper dish-pockets. The rock really reminds me of Shelf. The crux is high, moving through the slopers. A good variation that I did "awhile" back is "The Radical Mastectamy": climb the wall without using the two nipples at all.V4/5
If you want to work it out on TR (like I did) you can use a #3 C4, #1 C4, and a #9 BD stopper for an anchor.

Ughhhhh! Best "V3" problem at Rotary, yet so often overlooked. While the fall from the crux can be intimidating at best, with a big pad or two small ones and a conscious spotter, this problem shouldn't cause any bodily harm. While the R grade may have applied back before the landing was gardened, I don't think it is as applicable today.

Hands down the best V3 at Rotary. If you like this one, go check out the Scoop. I'd take it one step further and say the current condition of the landing doesn't even warrant a PG-13. It's a clean fall onto a gardened, although slightly slanted, landing. Don't be intimidated by this rating, go check it out!
