North Guardian Angel
This is the crack mentioned as 5.6 in Climbing Magazine, but much more like 5.4 or scramble grade. There is a rap/belay station at the top. Very scenic climb stuck between Northgate Peaks and the Subway Canyon, incredible views for sure. North Guardian Angel, Zion National Park, May, 2007

and these domes are only so kind as to remind you every "step" of the way....never imagined I would be contemplating 5th class moves so carefully....or that "bushes" would serve as my bomber pro on a route....cheers

~45-55 degree slab:
on granite = 5.5 - 5.7
on Entrada sandstone = 5.9 (desperate!)
