Description
Thoughtful sequence in low part, then strenuous in high part.
Start on face just left of wide crack chimney in big right-facing inside corner on Left side of central pillar. Use a step just above the bottom of the chimney crack to get off the ground. . . ? (project 1: get started on the face without putting a foot on the corner) ?
Up the face aiming for roof above -- without using the corner crack/chimney or pillar face to right of it.
Just below roof, cross horizontal Right over top of corner crack into notch behind the pillar -- without touching backside of pillar or narrow "floor" below behind top of pillar.
Above back of pillar see right-facing flake system up through left center of small roof (great hands but no feet). Next (without standing on top of the pillar or on the smaller block between the right side of pillar and the main wall) up the flake and over the roof to the top. . . . (right side of roof is easier (with footholds) but then an awkward exit).
warning: The rock on and near this route has not been climbed much yet, and some of the rock is still breakable and loose -- so the belayer and other people should stand far away from underneath the climber or someone setting up top anchor.
. . . (Lots of vegetation on this rock as of 2018. Be prepared when climbing to navigate around protruding trees and branches, and dealing with holds slippery with grass, lichen, moss, dirt).
