Gavin on the start of the right side slab...


Description 

Once again im guessing on the grade and i don't know if the route has a real grade but if you know any info ill add it if you tell me... I just thought it should be included...

On the right side at the base of the dome find a right angling crack in the slab... Climb the crack until it gets thin then break out left on to the slab for a few moderate low angle face moves... The slab eases up so you can walk a few paces... move right around a bush and up a right facing corner to a stance... Navigate up the slab, there are a few choices... If your eyes are open and your footwork is honed you should find a moderate way to the top...

Very similar to "Half Moon Crack" 5.7 in the guide. It starts the same way with a right angling crack to a stance, up a leftward crack and over some slab, then break off on a "crescent moon formation" and the final face.

If you lead this going up the crescent shaped crack near the top, beware the runout face moves for the topout. Some ledge-fall potential there, though the holds are OK.
