Description 

This line ascends principally low end difficulty terrain with a short crux. Start up a blunt arete on very easy terrain past a chopped stump and chopped bush past 4 bolts to a ledge. Find a brief crux above this ledge. Continue up on indistinct terrain. At one point you will see a cluster of bolts on the left, ignore these. Pop over an easy bulge/roof on jugs to a 2 bolt anchor with Mussy hooks.

Note the gouges on the tree to the left.

This is on the lean side of a star.

Others have provided a name for this, Reunion. This may have been climbed in the 1980s.

Location 

This is the left most route on the NW aspect of this small crag.

Protection 

9-10 bolts, although you could accidentally clip 3-4 more bolts just left or right of this line.
