    Extremely sharp, but really classic slab movement. Possibly the hardest slab I've done.

    Absolute-last-go caboose on Zac and Jerome's send train! What a day. Went down a little too quickly for me to give it V9 - my experience on slabs like that is that I need a full session just to pull on. One thing is for sure - this line is a classic and deserves attention!

    Don't know why this gets so little action? Think ive only ever talked to one other person that's ever done it. Not even aware of another person I know trying it. Maybe the description highball V9 slab scares ppl off? But really its only 10 degrees off vert and climbs like more of a crimper face. And the highball factor....I did it safely...ish by myself with one large pad, one small pad, and a coaster. The landing rises with the line which mellows it out. Plus there's a big tree to run a TR right on top of the boulder to work the higher and easier moves. And V9? I though it was low end V9 or V8 although I started it from the lowest point on the slab and not the wierd around the arete start, which I don't think really changes the difficulty. Long story short, this thing deserves way more action. One of the best at choss....get on it!!
