Two fully bolted multi pitch routes just across from the Baldy Crag.

The left route is Slabby McSlabface 5.6 114m.
The right side route is Slabby Packsmacka. 5.7 124m

Either route can be accessed from either of the first pitches.

Both are fully bolted routes with generally good friction. West facing aspect. P1 remains shaded most of the morning but pitches P2-4 get sun most of the day when the sun is high.

10 quickdraws and 60 meter rope required.  Using a 70 meter rope makes the rappels easier.
 

Approach:

Park and approach as for the Baldy crag but where the trail turns left, before the single pitch cragging area, you will see a dry rocky creek bed feeding in from the right. Take this right hand fork for two minutes to the base of the route where the large slabs above drain into the creek bed. The first pitch climbs the right hand side of the gully.
