Golden Slab

V1+ PG13, TR, Boulder, 25 ft (8 m),  Avg: 3.7 from 50 votes
FA: unknown
Massachusetts > N Shore > Lynn Woods > Mt Spickett/Gol… > Golden Wall

Description

Stand start at the center of the Golden Wall, and move straight up through the crescent features and technical smearing to a big crimp at ~15-20 feet. From there, move up through a ladder of easy crimps. The top is much easier than the bottom but shouldn't be taken lightly due to the height.

Location

Start in the middle of the Golden Wall, and finish ~25 feet straight up.

Protection

Multiple pads.

[Hide Comment] Very, very cool. Pretty objectively R-rated in my opinion - a tumble from the top would be very bad, and (while it's pretty easy the whole way) it doesn't completely jug out up there. Get after it! Apr 16, 2024
