Description 

Good Girls Don't is a reasonably enjoyable slab line that climbs one long pitch up the Lower Tier of the South Slabs.

Start at the base of the slab on thin edges and decent (a little lichen-y) friction, protecting in a couple features along the way. Be sure to sink some pro in the flakes about 25 feet up, as you'll launch into the crux friction moves with those flakes at your feet. The difficulty and angle begins to ease after this, but not soon enough, it seems, as there's little to no protection for the rest of the pitch. Sack up and run it out to the base of the Upper Tier and belay.

Location 

This decent slab line climbs the Lower Tier of the South Slabs, beginning at the lowest point of rock, between Fun Flake and Two Minds Meet.

Protection 

Bring a few nuts and maybe small cams for some pro in the opening section of this climb, but otherwise you won't need much, just a solid head and confidence in your rubber.
