Route Info
This route climbs the massive slab on the far west side of the mountain.
To get to the main slab, begin beyond the cableway station at a vertical crack beneath some vines. Climb up to the arete then traverse left onto the slab covered in leaves. Follow this up and over the edge onto the main slab. Once on the slab, do your best to navigate the wall’s bumps and dishes to reach the top. All holds are off route except the very top.
This was the third slab route ever put up on Kami.
