Description

This route starts on the West Face of the Labor-dome, left of center, on the horizontals just left of the start of Woman's Work. The route climbs a small and short left-facing crack/corner to reach a small roof, where it traverses LEFT under the roof (crux) and out around the left-hand edge of a horizontal flake, then over it, moving right to get on top of the flake.  Run it out a bit on the easier slab and belay in a rounded ledge below the roof.

On the 12/26 ascent, John D. was "running" up this (following) near dusk faster than I could suck in rope. 3 feet from the top he snapped off a hold and fell about 10-12 feet down the face (no injury). There may be more "temporary" holds nearby on this line, so please beware. It seems possible that this lead was a FFA. It was an undocumented line at the time according to the book.

To descend, walk/scramble to climber's right (south) as described in the "rock" page.
