Description

Climb a short vertical face (crux) which quickly slabs out at the second bolt. From here the climb wanders up the slab to a steep finish, which involves handrailing out right along a horizontal crack to a shared anchor with Whiptail.

The name comes from a slab-smacking fall, which earned a fractured ankle, by one of the members of the FA party.

Location

Locate this route on the right side of the north face - just left of

Whiptail

on a slabby section of rock.

Protection

6 bolts, sport anchor
