Description Suggest change

The right most route on the Laughing Owl Slab offers fun slabbing on high quality stone. If the upper portion didn't ease off in angle quite so much, it would doubtlessly be worthy of another star. 60 m rope needed for lowering. The first half makes the route very worthwhile.

Location Suggest change

Take the trail around right and up to get to the upper tier of the Laughing Owl Buttress, which drops you off at the base of the slab. Walk about 40 right, past Bubbles and you should see the bolts heading up the slab. If it hasn't been climbed in a while, the very bottom may need a little rescrub as it has seepage during the wet season (easy to do if you stick clip the first bolt)

Protection Suggest change

Bolts and cams up to #3 Camalot. A mid size offsett is handy for the flake in the middle, though with care, you should be fine without it.
