Some steep face climbing (11b - ish) leads to an awkward rest about 3 ft bellow the big roof. Clip the first bolt on the roof from a restful stance and then climb out the roof (V2 or 3 - ish) with big moves on jugs. When you grab the lip, don't forget to reach back and clip the second roof bolt (fixed draw) before pulling the lip to a stance and climbing the last few feet to the anchors.
Aside from being a great route, oosik also provides some good entertainment for spectators since climbers often find themselves, after sticking the move to the lip, too pumped to clip and forced to take a 20 or 30 foot whip (distance is belayer dependent).
Location
When you are in the Bat Cave, facing the woods with the big roof above your head it is the first line of bolts on the left hand wall (right before air blast).
Protection
A handful of draws (8 should do it although it might be less)
