Garlic and Onions

Description

Easy slab climbing with good protection.  Crux is near the bottom as you climb the small left-facing slab and gain the ledge above.  "Garlic and Onions" because that's what The Gunpowder smells like in spring.

Location

Far right of the main face.  Route begins in the crack in the small left-facing slab.  Gain the ledge above.  This is the crux and maybe easier than 5.4, if you are really tall.  Place solid gear at the back of the ledge.  Move up and right.  Place more gear in right-facing flakes.  Use care because some of the rock is friable.  Move up and slightly left over easy slab climbing with big holds.

Protection

Standard rack.
