Surprisingly, there is no record online or in any guidebook for this route. “Cool Slab,” a boring, but accurate, name for this fantastic route! I climb it at least once every trip to Sandrock.

 There are two classic high-step slab moves, the harder being right off the ground and the easier right at the top.

 This is an excellent beginner intro into bouldering, as the height is perfectly spicy but still completely safe. The smile of climbers both new and old after they grab the victory jug at the top is priceless.

This is the source of the sickest picture in the Dixie Cragger.

 A balance-y move gets you established with poor feet. Then gaston your heart out as you “groove” yourself up the perfect water groove. Classic.

I first climbed this in 2012 top roping from a dead tree limb. Even though I've never seen or heard of anyone climbing this, there is no way that this obvious crack hasn't been sent before then. A crimpy crux down low gets you established into the flared crack. Jam your way up to some decent holds for a highball topout.

There are dozens of ways to do this one. Work yourself into the leftmost deep water groove, then awkwardly wiggle your way towards the top. Gets a little sketchy towards the top. 

The Jaws area covers everything from the Boy Scout Wall to the end of West Side Rock.

 The route's namesake was posted as a toprope/trad route and can be found here: mountainproject.com/route/1… Do yourself a favor and sack up and boulder it. Jaws is THE must do boulder at Sandrock.
