Rock
Typical Looking Glass slab, with the trademark eyebrows. P2 is pretty dirty.

Description:
About 40 yards right of Short Man's Sorrow, climb the easy 2 pitch slab with bolted belays. Most parties seem to rap from the top of P1. Bring some cord for a rap anchor if you plan to climb P2.

First Climb on South Face
There were several parties climbing the routes we came to climb so we decided to give this a try since it was our first time to this area of the mountain. It was ok for what it is but a little boring. I guess it would be a good beginner route. If you have limited time and want the most bang for your buck, move on.

Interesting little puzzle
Started this a little wrong and went right, more 5.7ish, corrected and went left past the first ledge and enjoyed the route. Dry for once and a good intro to multi-pitch for the girlfriend.
