Description 

True to it's name The Landlord covers a large swath of real estate and if you want to reach the anchors you'll need to dig deep and pay up front with technical slab skills.

Start near the left side of the south face and wander up and right along the steep slab using smears, edges, loose plates and the odd patch of good rock.

Despite the number of bolts on this route it's no sport climb and has a bit of an adventurous feel to it. 80' rap down to the base.

Location 

Left of center on the south face.

Protection 

11 bolts (5/16"), 2 bolt anchor/rap (3/8")
