This is the route that I took up McGregor Slab. It was a windy day, so I did short pitches. I was able to well protect this route. I found pro every 6 to 15 feet. I would rate this route as 5.5.

Finishing the last pitch of the direct variation.
Left Standard topo:<br> Red - 5.3, Blue - 5.5, Green guidebook variations 5.3 to 5.7. Yellow - downclimb.
Coordinates for actual start below rap station/tree belay(s).
This is where I like to start. It is left of the guidebook described start but right of Leo's Flatiron slab start.
Approximate route following the right-facing corner.
This is how I did pitch one. I was able to protect the pitch well. I could place protection every 6 to 12 feet.
