Description
Dude's Abs is a slab route that starts in the middle of the boudler, moves to the left edge of the boulder, and works its way up and across to reach a topout. The route starts with two perfect crimps. It requires a match on the undercling to the left of the start. The crux is a massive static left hand to the sloper at the far left. The rest of the problem is simple slab. Caution, the route is directly over a series of smaller boulders. I highly recommend a spotter for this one.
Location
The route is located between Double Dominatrix and the Impeachment Day Parade on Dude's Throne South face. The route start is located near the center of the boulder. You can get down a number of ways. 1. After sending, walk towards Impeachment Day Parade. There is an easy climb around to the ground. 2. Slide on your butt toward Double Dominatrix, and find nice feet. There is an overhang you need to catch with both hands, and work your feet down.
