Stand start on the slab arete and follow sloping edges and smears straight up the arete until you reach a crack feature on the right. Either layback the crack feature or trend right to good footholds and topout over the lip. Try not to panic and grab the bolt hanger at the top.

Brontes (sit start)

Sit start with a left flat edge and a right sloping jug directly beneath the large indentation in the slab. Crank up to left crimps and palm press into the stand start. Continue through the classic moves on solid rock (including a gaston to the right, a mono pocket straight up, and jugs way up and left.) Topout straight up.

Stand start with either a double mantle, or a weird rockover mantle move. Climb up with crimps, a gaston thumb press, and a mono pocket until you reach sloping crimps up and slightly left, eventually reaching a jug. Topout straight up.

Stand start on a slightly slopey undercling with a foot jug. Traverse left to a small sharp crimp. Smear your way left until you reach the crack system before the arete. Continue up the crack system until you can topout. Laybacking at the top of the crack system puts your body on the left side of the arete so pad accordingly.

Stand start on two high sloping pockets. Get a high foot and lock off to an iron sloping crimp. Make a delicate move to get your other foot over the bulge and then climb up delicate slab to the tall topout.

Stand start with your left hand on the arete. Climb up some mossy smears to the tall topout.
