Elk Slabs from the Approach trail. Tree Route is far right line with trees on it. The Dihedral is obvious dihedral to the left of that and Great Expectations is crack to the Left of Dihedral. Finally, Water Streak is a little more left and climbs through the water streak. They weren't exactly creative when naming these routes....

Elk Slabs as seen on the approach. Yes, the rock is just as good as it looks.

View from the bottom of Elk Slab looking out
Elk Slab as seen from the south. Routes shown are: Tree route (1), Nike Route (2), The Dihedral (3), Great Expectation (4), Arching Crack (5), Water Streak (6), Buns Up (7), Big Leap (8), The Eliminator (9).
Water Streak P1 anchors (April 2022). These are on the right side of the streak. They are surprisingly easy to pass if you're vibing the slab and looking at your feet. Shared between Buttress, Water Streak, etc. 40m would get you here on SINGLE STRAND RAP
