Description 

This is a one pitch face route, nothing special. Rappel from a tree at the end of the climb.


Protection 

Some small gear for the crack below the first bolt.

So-so climbing on it's own, but it can be done as an alternate first pitch to Fingertrip when that route is crowded.

kind of odd to protect as I recall (pod or pocket), although bolts protect afterwards.

The crux is pretty simple and nice to make you feel good about yourself. Once you get to the first bolt (one committing move) the rest feels very well protected. The upper face is really easy.

A #1 Friend fits just right in that pocket and is the key pro.
