Left Slab - Near Left Gully

Lots of interesting outdoor moves -- more challenging if take a fairly direct line from bolt to bolt.

A climber following could find interesting moves at less difficulty by pulling through the crux by grabbing the draw on the first bolt (5.5 C0), then climbing to the left of the direct line between bolts. Or by hanging an etrier / aid-ladder off the first bolt, could get the overall difficulty down to around 5.4 (and still interesting).

Follow the bolts. Decide if you want more challenge by more direct, or less difficult still interesting by trending left.

warning

: The rock in this sector has not been climbed much yet, and much of the rock is still breakable and loose -- so the belayer and other people should stand far away from underneath the climber.

Gully to left of the central apron of the left slab. See first bolt about 25 ft above left.

4 bolts to 2-bolt anchor w 2 rings

Move to reach to clip the first bolt might feel a bit unusual. We found we could protect that with 0.4 Camalot behind underneath right-trending crack.
