BETA PHOTO: The wall with Scorpion Slab, an unknown route and ...


Description 

The crux is getting off the ground, then climb up past eight? bolts to a two bolt & chain anchor on the summit of the formation.


Location 

If you park at the corral south of the main Ibex area, walk north under some crags and then west up the hill to the base of a nice looking, wall. Approach takes about 5 minutes. There are two routes on the slab, an easier 5.6? which is bolted to the left, and Scorpion Slab is on the right.


Protection 

Quickdraws. An optional but not needed smaller cam (3/4") can be used near the top.
