Description 

Climb the dihedral almost to the roof, move right (a bit insecure), then climb out and around onto the face. Straight up (crux) to a small roof. Move left, then up to the belay/rappel tree.
Excellent face climbing.

Location 

Fifteen feet left of Easter Time Too, look for a shallow dihedral with some orange rock.

Protection 

Standard 'Gunks rack.
