Description 

the best protected way to start this pitch is to walk 10 feet up hill from the start to endeavor, you will be directly below a overlap/right facing corner. Pad up the mellow slab to the right facing corner, protect (green alien/green c3)and make and awkard mantle move (8-) and head left a few feet to the bolts. Follow bolts over a steep headwall with increasingly hard moves, at the top of the head wall you will want to head diagonaly right and up running it out on broken slabby rock stopping at a small groove (very small cams/rp's/micronuts) then head straight up to the tree belay meeting up with endeavor.

Location 

10 feet up hill from the regular start to endeavor...look for a right facing corner/overlap and bolts above.

Protection 

small gear, small nuts, quick draws and the rest of the rack for endeavor.
