There are a number of possible ways up this slab from 5.0 to 5.6. It can be wet. It doesn't seem to be often climbed.

Climb dihedral then out on face to Left up to ledge. From ledge stick to the left of the face.

Climb the slab to the left of the gully. You can either climb on the left or the right. There is one bolt directly off of the trail for protection to set up a top anchor. Two top rope bolts and 4 sport bolts on the face.

Located at the right end of the cliff, by the scree slope.

Start on the ledge to the right of Big Mac Sport. Follow the bolts up the shallow dihedral to the ledge and finish on Big Mac Sport.

Located at the far left of the Slab. Start on the arete, pull over the mini roof and head straight up the centre of the well-featured face. This climb has more texture than the rest of the glassy slab. Fun but short.

This route is supposed to follow a crack system, but I have peeling back the moss and haven't found any crack system on this wall. There is a line of weakness composed of small ledges and niches, so I presume this is where the line goes.

Start on bottom of sloping ledge left of Pod People and follow the bolts up.

Start with a hand in each pod and mantle up. Climb the face directly to the right of the arête. At the ledge step out left to finish up

Starting at the triangular block, climb the slab at the far end of the overhang. Climb the dihedral at the overhang and straight up the headwall to the top. There is a good tree for an anchor right above it.

Start on The Good, but when you get to the roof go right under the tree and up the crack system.

Start beneath a bolt. Climb past some horizontal cracks and follow a vertical crack system up to a small roof. Climbing the roof brings you to a ledge with a short second wall above.

Double ring anchor on the ledge is shared with 'The Ugly'.

Follow the line under the shiny new bolt. When you get to the roof follow the line of weakness to the right.

Double ring anchor.

Follow the line of bolts up the slab and pull over the prominent roof.

Start below the first bolt and climb up the centre to the ledge and continue up the face. The climb was bolted the week that Trump fired CIA Director James Comey - hence the name. Bring Slings and biners for the top anchor bolts.

Climb the ramp into the dihedral, to the left of All Aboard, and then up to the thin crack. Bring slings to tie off trees.

Start on the jugs below the overhanging arête (there is an easier direct start, but it is a lot less fun.) Work right to the ledge, go up the alcove to the ledge and up the centre of the wall to top out. For a slightly harder variation avoid the jugs around the corner at the top of the alcove. The name comes from the primordial feeling at the base... and also the dried coyote shit at the top when I first cleaned it. 3 bolts and a two bolt anchor. Bring slings and biners for the top anchor bolts.

Start at the left arete on the lowest ledge. Traverse right in the horizontal weakness onto the block on the right. Top out on the other side of the right block.

Start on 'Climb the Arete SDS' but don't top out. Instead, traverse the horizontal break below the top arete and end on the left ledge.

Standing start

Eliminate arete

Blocky downclimb on the right arete

Starts on the two pockets in the middle of the face - left foot on small ledge, right foot smear, then easy throw to nice pocket. Top out straight up from there. Fun little move!

Sit start on the block, then traverse right around the corner and top out.

SDS. sit, avoiding the water-filled sump at the base. Pull up the center for the top.

SDS up crack on left

SDS up thin seam.

SDSStart with hands in the whale's mouth.

Climb the bulging arête.

Start in the alcove on far right and work left.

Layback up the crack. Watch the block at the top. Seems ok but sounds worryingly hollow.

Climb along the "neck" of the bear, the crack/ shallow dihedral at the right. Top o out by grabbing the bear's nose.

Climb the arete at the right, on the bear's rear. The face on the boulder beside it is out.

Same crack as "Bare Arse", but only feet only on B Boulder, to the right of Polar Bear.

Climb centre of B Boulder.

Climb right of B Boulder.

SDS. The piled boulders right of B Boulder.

Climb the arete at left. Check that the boulder on top is solid first!

Climb the far right of A.

Climb the boulder to the right of the A Boulder.

Right side of Mr. T. Fist Jam up the crack.

Start up right corner then step out onto the face. Highball.

Climb the obvious thin crack. This might be one of the best problems in this area.

Long traverse from left to right, or right to left. Very dirty at the moment.

Traverse the crack from right you left following the diagonal crack. Highball.
