Access Issue: CLOSED - PRIVATE PROPERTY. This entire area is on private property and is closed.
Details
Per Matt B: this entire area (including Upper Infirmary Slabs) is on private property. Check USFS maps, and you'll see a rectangular chunk of private property just off the road at the beginning of Coffin Top Gulch. This unfortunately includes the beginning of the Coffintop Trail as well. As it stands, the landowner does not want climbers on his property, so these crags should be avoided.
Description
This is a slab/face route. It is a definite sandbag.
Per JF M: climb a slab to the relatively high first bolt, then angle right of the second bolt. Follow the rounded ribs to the left-leaning corner. Finish with the shared anchor bolts after a short roof move.

Protection
Quickdraws for the bolts, the route can be toproped from the 2 bolt anchor at the top.
Per JF M: bring two draws for the bolts. You may want a yellow Metolius (#2) for in between the bolts. Friends #1.5 to #2 (~BD #0.75) protect the the crack in the corner. There is a shared two bolt anchor with chains. You can get TR access up and around the left side of the slabs.
