This short route has a number of interesting moves. The crux is in the first 20 feet, going up a shallow groove and rounded arete. Easier climbing above takes you to a bolted belay/rappel anchor.

one bolt, one fixed pin, and a few pieces of gear (mostly small)

A short "one move wonder" route that has some fun moves on it. I'd give it an "R" rating as you're looking at slamming into the ledge at the base if you fall.
I got a decent #1 DMM peanut and a sideways #6 stopper a few feet above the bolt, but I'm not sure either would have held a fall. Scary, and kind of exposed for Suicide. I sure wished that piton was a little lower!
