A nice place to start on this slab, this route is full of large ledges and cracks.

I can't believe it's not butterscotch

Probably not butter

Definitely not butterscotch

Probably Just Scotch

A route on the butterscotch slab that offers a little more of a challenge. Features crimps, cracks, and the final ledge ending of "I can't believe it's not butterscotch".

Looking for more of a challenge? then give this crimptastic route a try :)

The hardest route viable on the butterscotch slab. The original finder of this boulder is seen climbing this route in the photo. Be prepared to be defeated :P Features crimps on a much more vertical section of the slab, good footwork is rewarded.

SDS or you probably won't get it. Heavily chalked up right side pull and left sloper. Make your way up left toward the pockets and cracks. Slim and curved feet. Hang your body left away from the slim side pull and make use of the left arete until you can top out over the corner.Grasping those cracks, pockets and side pulls is the crux. Once you get that, you're gold.Put it at a 2+, but open to additional opinions for a firm rating. It's easier than the V3 but only a little.Two spotters recommended because you could fall sideways in either direction with serious risk of hitting your head on the rock right behind you (regular pad wouldn't even fit long ways, had to fold it in half against that rock)

A west facing slab about 12 feet high. Routes range from V0 - V4. It's a nice spot to warm up for the main wall of Trippy Rock. Due to the abundance of Jeffery Pines in the area, you may smell butterscotch on warm days here.
