'D' Slab Direct (DoubleD)

FA Unknown
CREATED 
UPDATED 

Description

D Slab Direct starts next to D route. Instead of climbing the corner as for D route this line climbs pretty much straight up the middle of the slab to the overlap, near the top the route joins and finishes as for D route. There are two crux sections one above the first dirty ledge and one thin area below the overlap. This is a great bit of slab climbing! True to form the protection is sparse, takes some fiddling, and if you stay true to the route and out of the corner, you will need to run it out a bit. The best pro is found at decent enough stances. Be comfortable at the grade or drop a top rope on it first to suss it out. Great line!

Location

Starts ten feet to the right of D route. Avoids the corner of D route for holds and pro. 

Protection

Standard Rack, Tree Rap slings at the top of the pitch.
