I found a series of short slabby faces on the road from the Marine Lab back in 2018. We began to develop them and we put up 4 sport routes. They are Shark Bait (5.7), Marine Slab (5.10a), Scare Face (5.9) and Stumped (5.9). We had noticed that these routes have been getting some activity and we decided to work on a few more. Since July, we have put in 2 more (Dirty Old Men and What Lies Beneath) and have just bolted a project. The project will be a really fun 'lay-back' climb and there is likely another 2 or 3 routes further along the face.
The development this summer has opened up the base of the climbs and provides a better sense of this new crag. I am taking this picture from Marine Slab and Jan (orange helmet) is standing under our project.
This picture is taken from the other end of the face.
