Access Issue: CLOSED - PRIVATE PROPERTY. This entire area is on private property and is closed.
Details
Per Matt B: this entire area (including Upper Infirmary Slabs) is on private property. Check USFS maps, and you'll see a rectangular chunk of private property just off the road at the beginning of Coffin Top Gulch. This unfortunately includes the beginning of the Coffintop Trail as well. As it stands, the landowner does not want climbers on his property, so these crags should be avoided.
Description
This route ascends the shallow, left-facing corner and crack system located in the inset between the "Community Service" and "Remission" slabs.
Begin in the easy corner, and head up as the corner and the holds fade away. When the crack fades out, traverse right to the 2 bolt anchor of "Remission".

Location
Just left of "Remission" is a nice ledge that can be reached by a short and easy scramble. This route begins off of the right side of this ledge.
