Description 

Really fun roof climb. The roof is probably more like a 5.6. The crack above the roof is about 5.4. The pro is excellent. I would recommend this for a new trad leader.

small cams to #2 and nuts. Gear anchor.

A fun little climb with a misleading name. A good warmup for Baby Face, not the other way round, LOL.

I don't see how this got two stars, it's 1 move. The downclimb is more difficult, and takes 3 times longer, then walking up the route. There are plenty of starred 5.7s at Jtree that are still interesting if that grade is easy for you, this is not one of them.
