Description

An enjoyable easy slab with a tricky start.  A few cruxes with some Tom foolery in between.Pitch 1 - Cruxy start through two bolts to a big, flat ledge.  Follow the path of least resistance through a notch and a couple of step-ups with good gear. Pull onto the face below the bolt following fun side pulls on a chill slab.  Ends on a perfect belay ledge.  5.7, 4 bolts, 115'Pitch 2 - Head straight up from the belay through easy slab with a bolt and limited gear.  5.3, 1 bolt, 110'Pitch 3 - A short pitch with fun climbing and a fantastic view at the top.  Easy to link with pitch 2 if climbing with doubles.  5.4, 1 bolt, 40' Rap chains at each belay.Rap with a 70 meter (ideal) or doubles.  It is possible to rap with a single 60 meter, but you'll find yourself on the pitch 1 big ledge having to invent a way off.

Location

Almost exactly where the trail hits the big slab after Simp Slot.  Look just right and up for the first bolt.  Right of Tajar Tales.
