There's a decent rest if you step down. I missed this the first couple of times I tried this route, and tried to rest just above using the undercling, in a very precarious position.

At the hand jams in the middle of the 10 upper crack. Save a hand-sized cam for here--a #2 Camalot works.

If you're tall or flexible enough, this wide stem takes a load off you hands.

The crux is getting from the rest to here. Above this it's pumpy mid-10.

Get the jugs, then swing around left to a rest. This is 10 something.

This is the good hold at the end of the crux. Save a #0.1 or #0.2 to place at this stance.
