Description 

Labor Day is a unique, moderate pitch nestled in the throngs of hard routes on the right wall. Begins about 30' right of Black and Tan at old gnarly tree. Climb up crack which leads to roof. Move left and under roof (using runners!)and turn roof on the left (crux). From there enjoy a wavering finger crack with a few hand pods and plenty of face relief. Belaying on the ledge is actually quite a nice treat due to the views. Though the grade is moderate, it is not a straight forward route.

Location 

About 30' right of Black and Tan. Starts at gnarly old tree.

Protection 

0 TCUs through #2 camalot, Small/medium wires. Long runners.
