Bring tiny and small cams, and a few medium pieces to 1.5 inches. Very much an R/X route...

Description:
Towards the left side of the slab is a prominent pink streak of bare granite, with a wide fan of moss at its base. Left of the moss is a crack that will protect the first 25-30 feet of the route. Next pro is a flake on the right side of the streak 50 feet above ground. Beyond this no pro on the rest of the streak. Slightly easier ground (with some protection possibilities) exists to the right in the upper half of the pitch. Finish next to or atop the flat boulder capping this part of the slab.

Fun, if you don't mind the huge runout
Fun line on clean granite. Found some pro off to the right though probably only 2 pieces on the whole route were really any good. Good route for slab rats...
