Access Issue: Warning for the Great Northern Slab and Sonic Slab areas on the west (left) end
Details
In late Nov 2023, there was a significant rockfall encompassing the GNS, Sonic Slab, and Roger's Corner areas. There is still a ton of rock on the upper section that will very likely come down in the near future. This rock includes small and very large boulders. Please respect closures and avoid this region for the foreseeable future. For more information or updates please refer to the Climb Index! facebook page.
Description
A two pitch route with an excellent upper hand crack.
P1. From the top of Blockbuster climb the easy corner just to the left left. Consider belaying here to reduce rope drag). Traverse right passing the top of the Butt Lips Chimney and the start to Air Over Aries to a angular looking hand crack.
P2. Head straight up the hand crack until it joins with the final pitch of the GNS.
