General idea of slab steepness. This isn't a hard climb, but it is 5th class slab steep in places, and fairly sustained. However, there are plenty of lower angle rest spots, and unfortunately, more and more tree islands.
The Grand Range is seen behind when in hiking in Roaring Brook <br> ... during "dry season"

Eagle slide, so easy a dog can climb it. To be fair, he's also climbed the Trap Dike (exit via the old slab), Whiteface #1 and 2, Lake Placid Slide, Huntington Ravine, Kings Ravine, and pretty much every major scramble in the Northeast. <br> <br> I should caution anyone from doing this unless their dog is extremely well trained.

Looking north from about midway up the slide. Lots of cool green lichen on the slab.
