Bullit - 2nd Alternate Slab Start

Jon Sykes' "The Notches" gives this alternate a 5.8..... You decide ! (and we'll change it if enough override the 5.9)

START: On a slab, with bolts, which is about 200 ft right of the South (Left) Descent Gully, and about 50ft right of "Unknown #1 - 3 bolts on a slab". Above the correct starting slab should be the obvious "Bullit" Overhang. (see photo-s)

...and, yes, I do know that the projectile portion of ammunition is a "bullet", but Bullit is how Ed spelled the name. Perhaps one needs to "Bull" "it"...maybe to start P2 !?

P1 - Climb up the slab. Bolts are widely, but reasonably spaced (PG-13). At the top of the slab make great protected moves up and slightly right to the fixed belay at the far left of the "Bullit" overhang. 100+/- feet 5.8+ / 5.9-  

NOTE: Dhane Knakkergaar  Comments (2018):  "There's a very creaky flake before you clip the first bolt. Don't pull to hard!" (I don't remember this being the case when I did it a feew years ago, R Hall)

P2 - Step left and climb the crack in the left end of the OH (rated 5.6 [?]), continue up the crack and then slightly left on slab to a gear belay (0.75,green to #2, gold, Camalot-sized).

130 +/- ft 5.6 - 5.7

P3 - Scramble left. 30-40 ft
