There are plenty of good moderate slabs scattered around the area, along with more on the Icarus boulder, the Between Boulders, and 'Potty Mouth' crack is great. Selection gets thinner in the advanced range, but 'M&M Roof' is a popular line and the newer 'Sunrise Arete' high in the talus and 'Jameson Breakfast' out east in The Farm zone are both worth a visit. Elite potential can be found on undone projects including some near the parking lot and many more up in the newer areas.
