Recommended Jtree slab routes?
|
Going to jtree in a couple of weeks and I'm looking at doing some easy to moderate slab routes. I want to get my head around lead on slab. Looking for 5.5 to 5.10 range slabs. |

Stichter Quits (aka Black Tide) mountainproject.com/v/stich… |
|
Well bolted by J Tree standards! |
|
I will second WoW, and Stitcher Quits above. Heart and Sole is still on my to-do list. A couple others in those areas: |
|
Thanks for the recommendations guys. Looks like the echo rock area seems to be my best bet to find a good amount of slab in one spot. |
|
also check out loose lady. There's a nice slab boulder on the northeast side of intersection rock, too. |
|
After you do the ones listed above, move on up to: |
|
I would start with the easier grades I've climbed 5.11s on the east coast that are easier than a couple 9s in jtree |
|
Bump EBGB! |
|
EBGB is a bit of a tough 5.10 I think,,,it's also rather intimidating at the start...really good climb though. |
|
Many routes on Echo Rock from 5.5 to 5.10 |
|
Quick Draw McGraw. Falcon And The Snowman. Right side of Echo left of Eff Four. |

You can never have too many routes to do at J-Tree. Here's a few more: |
|
There are many good suggestions here. A couple other ones which haven't been mentioned yet is Chalk Up Another One and Run For Your Life. |

OK sorry about that. Let it be known that Said was the first to suggest Run For Your Life. I will suggest only Chalk Up Another One. The lower half is great slabbing. |

Dazed and Confused 5.9 on lenticukar dome. Right next to mental physics |
|
Walk On The Wild Side is an obligatory Jtree slab route that I'm sure you'll get on. Right around the corner from there on the same formation is Orange Flake. First pitch is great slab, from there you can do a short little traverse and rap down. |

Try: |

Figures on a Landscape is more face than slab, but still must-do. |
