Lady Luck 

This climb shares the same last 2 fantastic pitches as Sunset Slab.

Whats the descent?

Descend as per the standard First Creek Slabs descent. Here's a picture describing the way down. It involves 4 rappels with a single 60m and some downclimbing.

Excellent fun!
Here is my breakdown of the pitches:
#1: 120' to big ledge; funky seam start then trend right up the middle of the face; 5.4
#2: 150' to trees/bushes; middle of the face; 5.3
#3: 200'+ to huge ledge below varnished corner; fun face; 5.3
we had a 60m rope and had to move the belay 20 feet into the corner
#4: 110' up varnished corner; fun & easier than it looks, maybe 5.6 at the top; very small stance for belay 5.6
#5: 180' Head left just above the overhangs, then wander up the face. I kept mostly to the left side.5.3
#6: 200' Straight up the fun varnished face, mostly in the middle, aiming toward the right side. A belay appears just as you are about to give up hope (about 50' below the start of the finishing hand crack); 5.3
#7: 90' up the face to the obvious corner; its good climbing, but will be great if the lichen ever clears up. 5.7
The 50 yard up-and-right above to find the gully was a full-on thrash through the bushes. We found a small, very exposed ledge system that we traversed to the left after going up the gully. Not obvious.
Once in the gully proper, the descent is eay to follow (head for the big pine tree and turn left..) Downclimbing was not too bad.

New rappel stations are great. Thank you!!!

absolutely amazing route- definitely not challenging, but a joy to climb if you're looking for a good day out with friends with no pressure....

couple of notes:

first- if you're going up to the Labryinth Wall- this is the route to do it by. Solo up to the top of the 6th pitch, and short rope the last 5.7 section....

3rd pitch is not 200' from the big ledge- maybe 180' or so.

there's a fairly nice stance on the right side of the rib you can belay for the top of the 5th pitch. however, if you belay here, it is exactly 200' to the next belay, so any rope thats not new may not reach.

also, the gear was pretty sparse in places...but the climbing is never difficult. In fact, the big challenge here is that although this route is spectacular and deserves to be among RR's great moderates, the descent is non-trivial at the moment as it involves a fair bit of downclimbing that may leave some beginners a bit uncomfortable.

at any rate, an amazing route- much credit to Larry and friends for putting this one up.

This casual route was a joy to climb. There are some great belay ledges along the way. The easy slabs were still interesting enough to be fun climbing. We thought the best climbing was the varnished corner on pitch 4. The character-building descent is somewhat long and arduous.
A great stress-free day in Red Rocks!

Great route, descent is easy to find and not too bad.

An absolutely beautiful, fun and excellent moderate. Be prepared for the descent...it's long and a little grungy but well worth it.

Very nice route that reminded me of climbing the Third Flatiron in Colorado. Not a lot of gear is required, long slings are nice due to all the wandering. Yep, p6 is exactly 200'. We did this for a "rest day" but didn't feel all that rested after the descent and walk out!

This is a fun climb. Was in the shade all day, so it is getting cooler for doing this one. Need lot's of small nuts for most pitches. Not extremely difficult climbing but good practice for setting pro. The decent was a thrash getting to it but not bad. Good Rap stations and an overall good climb. Pitch 2 and 5 don't have lot's of options for pro, but are fairly easy climbing. pitch 4 and the short 7th were fun. The 6th is a nice clean long pitch! Cool Day ut fun day. Car to car about 8 hours.

A fun 900'+ romp with something less then 100’ of fun moderate climbing. Agree with Karl K (Apr 13, 2008) pitch descriptions. A few more route comments:

1. For a new route the rock is very solid and we did not find much (if any) lose and feeble rock.
2. Recommend 70m rope makes the couple long pitches nicer (esp. the 6th pitch) and it helps with the descent.
3. Once you find the start, route finding is not an issue until the descent. Just remember P5 does not follow the crack but wanders left onto the face above the overhang before going up.
4. The 5.3 pitches have long runouts, which actually adds to the fun of the climb. We went 40 to 50 feet between pro. If you spend the time and energy looking for more pro placement you may be able to run it out less.
5. The crux of the climb is an 8-foot (easily protected) vertical section of 5.6 (pitch 4) and not the 5.7 pitch.
6. Belay stance at the top of P4 is slightly uncomfortable. Ethics (and the band on bolting) aside a bolt to complement the trad gear placement at the belay station would greatly improve the belay.
7. At about 165 to 180 feet up on pitch 5 there are two bushes/small trees on the right; we belayed at the upper one. Good trad placement, but not the most comfortable belay.
8. Pitch 6 is long, we ran out all but 10 feet of our 70m rope. The belay station is slightly right of the middle of the slab and about 50-feet below the easily viewed 5.7 crack of pitch 7. Setting up the belay, requires some skill – not the best belay setup for a beginner trad climber and again not a comfortable belay station.
9. Pitch 7 has the best climbing. The 5.7 crack is in the corner of a left facing dihedral. Protects well. About 2/3 the way up the crack one can escape left to the outside face and finish the climb on a blocky face.
10. The descent is a longer affair then one would like for such a fun climb. Maybe if we had previous experience with the descent gully I would say it is as easy descent. However not knowing the gully we rapped it. There are nice rap anchor every 30 to 35 meters or so. A single rope is all that is needed.

Did it 5.6.2010
A fine scrambling with a couple climbing sections.
Here is 10 min video for almost every pitch:

Climbing is fun and all, but not worth it after doing the descent.

If you don't like the descent - you weren't on the easiest line down. Particularly now: someone has replaced the first rappel (that was on the pine tree) with two nice bolts off to the side.
They also added a couple of unnecessary stations that bypass cl.3 downclimbing.
Do it the old way - lots of down scrambling and a total of 4 rappels on a single 60m. Or use the new stations - at least 8 raps - most of which require double ropes.
Either way - a fairly straighforward descent.

I didnt say it was difficult. Its just not worth it, considering you can spend more time on the descent than on the climb.

fwiw- the bolted stations on that descent were placed illegally and acts like this can jeopardize our chances of being able to bolt legally in the wilderness.

also fwiw, aside from the very first rappel, the rest is easy 4th class and no rappelling is required until you get to the top of Rising Moons.

Good point, John. While the two stations at the trees might prevent some wear and tear that could damage these trees - the others are unneeded - and all of them set a bad precedent.
The descent should take less than an hour to the main/starting ledge. We usually do it in well under 40 min. Pretty good for climbs that are often well over 1,000'.
IMO - almost as easy & straightforward as Angel Food Wall.
If anyone is worried about the descent - feel free to PM me.

Decent, not great. We broke holds on every pitch, but the rock quality wasn't as bad as I expected. I caught myself having fun up there a few times. Best thing about this one versus Hot Flash, which is a more interesting route overall would be the consistency (upper+lower Hot Flash are like night and day-half great, half terrible) and the fairly quick nature of the climb. Maybe a good first route up the 1CSlabs for locals-but unless your limit is 5.7 handcrack, I think visiting climbers will find that there are a lot more interesting and sustained climbs out there. Descent took less than an hour, I think Wilder's right about just doing the first rappel and scrambling down the rest of the way to the Rising Moons raps (3 single 70 raps from this point). Doing about five raps burned a bunch of time and the way down was easier than I expected, fine in approach shoes with a pack. I'd do the minimum number of raps possible for your ability level, much less fun getting off these in the dark, I bet.

I just did this descent again and added my descent beta to the First Creek Slabs page.
The only addition here is, from the top of the climb, the scrub oak scramble is longer than you think; probably 100' to the exposed ledge (which still has a small cairn on it)

If I'd known what the descent would be like, I'd never have gotten on this route. An unroped 8th pitch followed by scrambling, thrashing and rapping was possibly the most miserable two hours I've spent on rock. I guess I'm too old for Red Rock . . .
