Access Issue: PARKING ALONG HIGHWAY 19

Description
The climbing is easy and enjoyable for the first 35 feet or so until you realize how detached the block that you are laybacking/chimneying is. Then you might FREAK OUT! When (and it might be next week, next year, or 100 years but freeze thaw cycle will eventually take this feature out) this thing pulls just hope that you or someone else isn't climbing on it.
Eventually you mantle the death block out and breathe an air of relief. Now, only your belayer might die. This is where the crux comes. Pull another mantle move using a thin hold and then be ready for good classic slab moves.
