Description Zit Slab is the first crack system left of the three Deception Cracks. Start in a corner with jams and face moves to a small ledge. Launch up the upper crack with great jams and huge buckets to the cliff top. Possibly the best route of it's grade at West Elden. Descent - Rap from anchors atop the Right Deception Crack or scramble down 4th class terrain to the right of PMC.
Protection .5 - 3.5 Camalots Medium to Large Stoppers Slings and Draws

| Does not appear to be an anchor as of summer '12 (unless I was in a big, big rush and missed it). Plan on rapping from Right Deception Crack rap hangers. |

| they were there when we did it about a month ago. They are climbers right on the ledge at the top. I missed them too, built an anchor right underneath them, and found them as i was breaking down the anchor... |

| That's funny Darren; must have been what I did too! I'm sure the rain and thunder didn't help. Will look next time. |
