MapKauk Slab
Description
A perfectly cleaved smooth friction face with visible starting feet and then a few bare hints of something you might call edges or holds. It is significantly harder than Blue or Red Suede shoes. Extremely temp dependent, with paper thin edges in a couple of spots. If you can send this one, you'll likely do well on Kumba - the other notable hard slab on the Camp 4 Circuit.
Location
This is basically right next to Ament Arete. If you're walking down the old paved trail through the circuit coming from the Wine Boulder area, it's facing you, right next to the trail, a smooth tan colored face. Just to the right is a split in the boulder that provides a low angle 8' handcrack.
Protection
