Climb up past two bolts (a bit runout) to gain the ramp in the middle of the wall. Clip a bolt on the steep wall above the ramp and make a jump move (crux) to reach the face above the ramp. Climb past two more bolts and finish on Suspended Animation.

Rappel the route.

In the Wasatch climbing guide by the Ruckmans it says that Lance Bateman and Ben Folsom did the first ascent. Lance deserves all the credit as he bolted it and led it free. I followed on the first ascent, and can't remember if I was able to do it free cleanly at that time or not. I went up there last year and was unable to do the crux move.
Cool temperatures will help on this climb for sure. The crux sequence above the ramp is really good! Climbing on the pink and orange rock is really nice.
