Looking up at pitch 5 of Groover. Below me is the 60-70ft runout on a water groove. A #3 is the only piece you get in before you get here.

When the weather goes from bad to worse in 5 minutes. That is dime sized hail by the way. If it says 30% chance of rain don't go :)

Routes on the right section of Laurel Knob. (Updated June 2016).

This is the turn you're looking for just shy of the road when hiking through the valley on "Deep Gap Trail". It used to be much more hidden before the steps were built and the sign re-done.

Looking out from The Funky Chicken - showing routes in the area.

Hazy long shot of Laurel Knob 09/08

The dazzling white water groove on Groover up and left. Fantastic climb! (even with a single bolt rap here or there...)

Coming off the hike in, worth it from minute 1
