Travis on the East Slab Descent.

The new bolted rappel anchor at the top of the Upper Ramp. Installed 8/21/06.<br>
<br>
Traverse in from climber's left to avoid using the tree to downclimb.<br>
<br>
The rope pull is clean with little friction. The rope only contacts the rock at the edge of the dropoff (where this photo was taken).<br>
<br>
The old tree anchor is just to the right.
