Hasn't voted | Thanks Lisa! I don't climb slabs regularly - so every time I start up a slab route (not that I've done that many), the first couple of pitches are FREAKY for me before I somehow adjust to it. Good stuff though!! | |

| rhyang | Oh yeah | |
Voted 10/10 | I (heart) slabs too ... Funny thing is that the very first technical rock climbing I did outside was at Tollhouse Rock, toproping the Sunday Slab. Scary for a beginner (which compared to everyone in these pics I still am :) ! But soon I was up at Skyline Slabs practicing, and a couple of places at Castle Rock state park. Fun stuff. | |

Hasn't voted | Rob - thanks man! Can you add some of your slab stuff ot the album? Whatever other stuff you think is relevant (Tuol.'s got to have tons of slab photos - I'm just not familiar enough with the place/routes to do a good search). | |

Voted 10/10 | Radek, the guy with the good California slab shots is Dave Daly :) Wish I had some good ones... I've been on Pywiack Dome, Stately Pleasure Dome, Pothole Dome, Puppy Dome, Lembert Dome, etc. but strangely have no slab climbing shots ! Wait, I think Dragger has some shots of Craig Peer on some incredibly thin slab somewhere ... | |

Hasn't voted | Thanks Martin! Hope you're alright with this. I know some folks ask (some don't) for permission before including photos of others in an album. I assumed people would be OK with this - i.e. me not asking first - given that if anything their photos would receive additional viewings. | |

Hasn't voted | Thanks! Yeah - I hear you. I got scared on slabs in much less hairy situations than what you describe. | |
