Description Suggest change

Quite possibly the best line on Red Slab, this route is an exciting lead with good, solid holds the whole way, and requires a bit of thought here and there to figure out a way past a seeming blank spot.

After mildly tricky start with some small crimps or a finger jam, you quickly pass the first bolt and reach a huge jug and breathe a sigh of relief. Continue straight up through three more bolts on small to mid-sized edges, then start trending to the right.

After clipping the penultimate bolt, take a second and wonder how you're going to surmount the blank rock before you. After figuring it out, reach nice, large positive edges and cruise to the top.

Protection Suggest change

8 bolts, ring anchors.

Location Suggest change

Third bolted line from the left on the "main" portion of Red Slab (this ignores the bolted line on the far left (Red Red Whine).
