Climb a height-dependent reachy start in a seam with large-RP for pro to prevent groundfall to a rest (5.9). Step left below a small triangular roof. Turn this with tiny cams or small nuts in a seam (5.11- crux), reach for painful fingers in the portions of the crack that are wide enough for fingers, and climb through the crux with nubs for feet. Steep featured climbing in the shallow open book lies above and is generally 5.10, with more small nuts & small cams for pro.
It starts about 15' right of Rattlesnake Crack in a seam shared with Route 17 then busts left of that route.
Protection
Cams from micro to handsize, especially #00 and #0 TCUs or equivalent tiny cams. 1 set nuts, including RPs. 2-bolt anchor, reachable from the top, was installed to prevent further damage to trees.
