West Slabs

Great place to learn slab and friction climbing. Routes from 5.6-5.8. Could be longer so do laps and find a harder line each time.

Obvious slab left of oak tree flake and swan slab chimney. To set an anchor hike up left side of climb then move right along ramp to a medium sized pine tree. This climb can be seen from the road and is popular with Yosemite guides and first timers and may be crowded.

Top rope only. Small tree is long dead. Bring medium cams .5-1 and section of static rope for anchor, maybe a 2 and another section of static for redirects.
