We've all become slabbers without realizing it...it's in our DNA and not our choice. It's time to stand proud and fly our rain-bowed slabber flag before friends and family and come out proudly from our "Schlock and Vice" magazine prison of what a normal climber should be. I'm a slabber AND I'M PROUD!
BTW, what are you doing tonight?

And,... some of my best friends also out of the closet "slabbers" and I just love them for who they are.

Their all too short to make an "ultimate" list, but Joshua Tree offers up some pretty good slab climbing. Here's a couple that don't get done much.

Snap on Demand


Stand and Deliver


But then these are steepish and have some holds, so maybe they're face climbs, not slab? They are less than vert, especially Snap on Demand.

The unreapeated Kelley/Beyer (VI 6,000’ 5.12a A0) on Mt. Moran is a contender for the Tetons

Hall of Mirrors is one of the most continuous, classic slab route in existence. You won't find any unnecessary cracks, or painful jamming, on the entire route, just sparsely protected friction climbing and thin edging for pitch after pitch.

I may be biased, because I was involved with the FA, but It is still a fine piece of granite.

Roan Wall's Centerstage in Darrington is not too shabby

What about Tuolumne's Needle and Spoon. I used to do a lot of slabs 25 years ago (before I met sport climbing) and a couple of years ago I got on Needle and Spoon and scared the padiddle out of myself.
