A short problem with great, friendly holds. My only complaint is that it isn't longer. Start squatting with the U-shaped jug in the middle of the face and pull up and left to the edges on the bulge above the crack. Get your foot up and move out right to a large sidepull before topping out on easy, slopey terrain.
Variation - Rather than move right to the sidepull, topout straight up with a sloper above the bulge.
Location
Five minutes up the Fire Tower Trail, where the trail takes a hard right turn, head left/downhill on a faint footpath where you can see the pond through the trees. The footpath leads into the warmup alcove, formed by two boulder walls and a freestanding boulder. This problem is on the first wall that is split with the long horizontal crack.
