E of East Slab East

This is an alternative to the oft-crowded

East Slab

. Also completely independent, unlike

East of the Sun

and

East Slab East

, so you won't feel like you are encroaching upon those on the

East Slab

. It is to the right of

East Slab

, aim for the black streak.

Start at the upper/easier start to

East Slab

up easy terrain to a right-angling finger crack. Place pro, perhaps Alien(s) too and move up and right. Pay attention to where the foot holds are or you will have to smear. Move up and left into a groove with a bucket. Then up and left up a ramp. Follow a short crack up. Now, you are near the black streak. Move up under the little overlap/roof. Here you can move left (easier) and pop over the overlap with a jug and easy left foot holds or move up and right (harder) up a hand crack and fire over the overlap/roof. Fire to the top. It is perhaps, 100 feet overall.

Now, you can catch a ride up the

East Slab

.

Standard rack to #3 Friend (#2 Camalot).
