Sunset Slab (N & S) Rock Climbing

Like most place at Erie there are many different ways to get here.

1. The easiest approach to the slabs is to park halfway up the mountain where Trail 239 crosses the road (there's also a kiosk on the left side of the road [when driving uphill] for reference). Take the trail on the right side of the road, which will have a sign indicating Trail 239 a few dozen yards down it. After some uphill switchbacks in the trail, it will eventually hit the Sunset Trail. Head right/downhill until you see the staples for Sunset Slab North. The trail continues down right and around to the base; continue another 50 yards on the trail to reach Sunset Slab South. 

2. 1. Park at the big trees pullout about .7 miles North of the Lake Erie General Store. On the East side of the road next to the trees is the 247 trail, follow that until the first juncture and take a left up hill. Hike up a somewhat steep path, it will eventually start to break through the tress and grant views. You'll arrive at the base of Sunset Slab South, approach probably won't take more than 20 minutes. This is the simplest way of finding the Slabs, especially if you aren't familiar with Mt Erie.

3. You can get down to the Slabs from the Summit / Powerline areas, that would be difficult for unless you have a good lay of the land at Erie. Follow trails down to Madrone Wall, instead of continuing to lower Orange area travel West on a defined path and you'll eventually com across the staple anchors for Sunset Slab North.
