Thin low angle slab climbing, runout but very low angle. With the new bolts this pitch is a great introduction to runout slab climbing but not a good beginner lead. The second pitch is awesome rock with cool features, beautiful line, but very very R.

Protection 

3 new bolts to 2 bolt anchor(all 3/8ths")on the first and only 2 1/4" on the second.
