Description

Tricky, cruxy slab climbing with well-spaced fixed gear: it's Rapid Transit, and it's a great route to get your heart pumping. That said, the crux is well-protected by a shiny bolt.

Location

Begin by sprinting up p1 of Thin Air to the bong anchors. Trend up and left through the crux, then further left to a ledge for belay. Pitch two is more mellow at 5.9.
