Description
I've seen this done a several ways... I guess it depends on if you like cracks or holds. The original FA was done by sit-starting with legs in the hole, grabbing the inside rail to start, and jamming your way to the top-out utilizing some interesting face techniques along the way. Alternatively, you can start with legs to the side and hands on the rail, going into a layback technique through the steep arete until the bomber hand jam can be reached. If you feel like a silly send, you can reverse the route and go up through the hole in the back. Pick your own path. Top out and head down the scramble on climbers left.
Location
From the road, hike uphill a minute through the aspen grove to the small wall with several crack features. Meat slurry can be identified by the in-cut steep start that leads to a hand crack.
