Description
The Super Slab is more of an area than a route. It is the large, smooth slab that you first encounter when hiking up the A.T. The Slab is about 80 feet wide and contains many toproping opportunities and a couple of leadable routes. It runs from Class 4 Scramble on the right to Slab to Corner on the left.
Popular toproping lines (not listed as separate routes):
The Fasulo book grades the Super Slab as 5.5-5.10. Choose the line that appeals to you. You can make it as hard or easy as you like.
Popular toproping lines (not listed as separate routes):
- On the far right side of the slab. Start to the right of two medium-sized trees growing on a small ledge about 20 feet up. A horizontal crack runs about 15 feet off the deck. (5.5)
- About 20 ft. right of T.B.D. See this pic for the start. (5.7)
The Fasulo book grades the Super Slab as 5.5-5.10. Choose the line that appeals to you. You can make it as hard or easy as you like.
Protection
Use the ascent gully (described in Upper Ledges) or Class 4 Scramble to access the top. There are trees suitable for TR anchors. In some spots, gear anchors can also be built.
Warnings:
1) The right side of Super Slab is well over 100 ft long so a 60m rope is too short for a toprope or rappel. You can TR with a 60m if you extend the anchor down about 30 ft. Knot your ends!
2) Recommend top rope only since there is very little pro up high. Definite groundfall potential.
