From Walt's Wall Route (p1), head left or west about 20-30 feet over a rock to a small area to throw packs down (like a small room.) This route is right between Ed's Crack and the Mantle Route. You can either go straight up from the left side of the "room" or you can do the right alternate start. There's a flake if you go right, but angle up to the left through a couple of bolts. Belay at the beginning of pitch 2 of Walt's Wall. A TR can be set by leading Walt's pitch one and walking over on a small ledge.
Protection
There are a couple (2 or 3) bolts, so bring a couple of draws. Then bring some medium to large nuts for the belay.
Location
Per Eric Goltz: the route actually starts just a few yards climber's RIGHT from Ed's Crack.
I apologize, the flake is on the left side, not the right.

Confusing route description: the route actually starts just a few yards climber's RIGHT from Ed's Crack, on a sort of arete w/ a protectable flake. From atop this pitch you can easily finish Ed's Crack.
