Description:

Goes up a low angle face along a ramp that rises up to the R, then goes left along the base of a small headwall. Several variations are possible - going straighter up the face is harder; all are a bit run out...

Descent Options:

Rap rings on static lines hang from a complex of boulders at the top left corner of the lower slab.
