Nestucca River Slabs
Slab left side
The Nestucca R. Slab is a large lower angle slab of rock. The left side has the only route potental. I have done some top ropeing and the rock is okay. We started a route but only got the first few bolts in the rock. When top roping it many holds snaped off but it's getting better. The climb will be bolted soon but as of now it has no anchors!!!
