Start under the bolt and pull up gaining a small ramp (5.8).  Head for the next bolt 40 feet up picking your way thru a series of slabby dihedrals placing small gear.  Gain a third bolt and the big, left-facing corner (good gear to two inches (5.5) to the RIGHT side of a roof system.  Clip the bolt and pull the right side of the roof (7+) to a stance and the last bolt.  Head up and right to a V-shaped slot (run out 5.9) to the anchors.

Park at a paved pullout 0.6 miles west of the Beige Siphon Tube in the narrows of Big Thompson Canyon, (next to the Borg).  Up and east set a series of steep slabs.  Slipstream is located on the right side of the highest slab 600 feet above the highway. Two small pine branches growing out of the Double O Slab 30 feet from the base landmark this slab.

APPROACH:  Class 4 up 30 feet of loose ledges 200 feet east of the pullout, hike to the broken rock walls directly under the upper slab.  Climb 3 or 4 wandering pitches through rotten Class 4 and Easy Class 5 rock.  Protection is limited. The way is marked by bolt anchors, slings on rocks/trees, and horns of rock used for the rappel off.  Conceivably, one could climb the first two lower slabs and hike to the top of the upper slab and rap to the start or climb any of the several new lines going in directly below the climb.

Slipstream: 5.9+ - Pitch 1. (60 feet) Climb the left-facing dihedral right of

Double O Crack

past four bolts to an exciting but well protected move left of a small roof to the chains.  Crux at the roof.

Pitch 2. (80 feet) - Climb up past two more bolts and exit the dihedral 40 feet up.  Stay right of upper

Double O

, placing gear as needed through 5.8 rock to a small ledge with a two bolt belay.

Rappel: Two one rope rappels to the base of the climb off of bolts/chains.  Four or Five one rope rappels off of trees, rock, and bolts get you to the bottom.  One final rappel to the road off of a two bolt anchor in the gully 50 feet above the road. (Gully directly above the screen drain next to the road).

Grip the right arete and edge up the face past 3 bolts (10+/11a) to a good stance.  Start up the upper section, past 3 more bolts, crux at second bolt, (11a), but 10ish thru the entire upper section,  finishing with a small roof bulge.

One could conceivably use junky holds on the right and left sides past the edges of the upper section of the rib, but that would be cheating now, wouldn't it?  Seriously, I did not use them, but it would make the climb easier.  As a side note, one can now climb Otherworld and Hard Luck and Bad Times, fourth class up 70 feet to the upper slab where one can climb Double O Slab or Slipstream Dihedral.  From there, you can then top out on the very top of the ridge by climbing any one of multiple lines (many done a long time ago, names unknown).  Short But Sweet and Short But Squeezed are two climbs up there that are listed in this guide. So, 4 rock pitches in a row, all raps done with a doubled single rope.

A nice 30-35 foot sustained hand and finger crack with two good rests.  Too bad it is so short.   Solid rock, vertical to start then down to 85 degrees or so.  Easier if one stays in the crack and avoids the nubbins on the surrounding face.

0.6 miles west of the Beige Siphon Tube there is a paved pullout on the south side of the road next to a big block of rock called the Borg.  Look up and east.  3 obvious slabs exist.  This crack is on the upper left slab in the center of the face.  Two small trees grow out of the crack 20 feet from the base.  Start up the thin crack and clip the two pitons. (5.10) move past the trees and climb the crack to the top using a standard trad rack to 2 inches.

I know that the name is not correct (sorry whoever put this up). I was trying to give somewhat of a description of the route.

Start below the left side of the lower slab as for the dihedral which forms the left margin of the lower slab.  Climb up to the base of the dihedral, up a little, then traverse left past a bolt; climb straight up to the acute, large, black dihedral above.  Anchors are above the dihedral to the right.

0.6 miles west of the Beige Siphon Tube there is a paved pullout on the south side of the road next to a big block of rock called The Borg.  Look uphill to the East.  There are 3 prominant slabs.  Ned's variation is on the lower right slab.  Start on the left of the rock in a seam/crack and go up.  When the seam ends at the arete.  Traverse up and right 9+ to the two chain anchor.

0.6 miles west of the Beige Siphon Tube, there is a paved pullout on the south side of the road next to a big block of rock called the Borg.  Look up and East.  Three obvious slabs exist.  Code Rainbow is on the lower right slab.  Start in a shallow crack on the right and go up to a thin but decent stance.  Gear is tough in this section (5.8).  Clip the bolt, and go straight up on runout rock or move left and up to the two bolt chains.

Crux just off the ground thru the 2nd bolt.

Pitch 1.   Start right of a detached block and a tree.  Slab/crimp up, clip and traverse up and right (crux) to a shelf.  Traverse to left edge and follow the face and flake up past several bolts.  Step left across shallow chimney to a two bolt belay by a small tree.

Pitch 2.  up the face or between face and block to right.  continue up overlaping slab past two bolts to a roof with a shark tooth of rock pointing down out of it.  Climb and pull the roof (8) then clip and pull the bulge/face (10).  Finish thru some cracks that take good gear to 3 inches.  2 bolt anchor.

Start at a slab under a line of 7 bolts.  Climb up the center of the slab on pink granite past 3 bolts (5.7) to a lip and a roof/bulge.  Pull the bolt protected roof (5.6) to a good stance.  Climb the center of the upper slab past the three remaining bolts.  The climbing gets progressively more difficult from that point as you go up, culminating in a 10a move, that is also well protected.  A couple more moves get you to the top.

0.6 miles west of the Beige Siphon Tube, there is a paved pullout on the south side of the road next to a big block of rock called the Borg.  Look up and east.  Three obvious slabs exist.  This route is on the upper left slab.  Climb up slab 1 and slab two to the base or follow some loose gullies from the road north of the slabs to the top.  Rap off the anchors to the base.  Climb up a arete/dihedral and gain the face on the left edge.  Very exposed.  Keep the the arete past two bolt to the two bolt anchor.

Traverse left to right, crux near the end of a 20 foot traverse.

Squeeze up the offwidth, crux 15 feet up.  Solid rock.  Exit out the top and wander up and right to the top of the ridge on easy rock.

From belay at bottom of second slab, climb down left for 10 feet under first bolt and follow line of 7 bolts straight up center of slab.  Crux about 1/3 of the way up.  Excellent edging.

From the original post (this was originally entered as a TR and named Second Slab aka Bee Highway):

0.6 miles west of the Beige Siphon Tube there is a paved pullout on the south side of the road next to a big block of rock called the Borg. Look up to the east. 3 obvious slabs exist. Second slab is just up and left of the lower right slab. Start in the middle of the face and go up to a seam/crack. Follow the seam left then right (5.9) to the top or continues up the right side of the face (5.7) to the top.

Crux right after the first bolt and last bolt of pitch one.  Another crux at the first bolt of pitch 2.  Start in a broken section 20 yards right of a big, pine tree.  Gain solid rock and the first bolt.  A mix of face climbing and a crack that is easily laid back on pitch one.  Pitch 2 starts with a vertical section followed by 60 feet of fun, slabbing, rail climbing.
