I think this is Melanoma Shuffle or whatever is climber's right of Melanoma Shuffle. Photo credit is probably Larry Harpe.

Outlined is the bolted route. after you go over the lip, there are two or three bolts till the anchor, a little run out, but since the grade is low it isn't so bad.

Here I am checking out the climb finding the first bolt of the Shuffle. I believe that the first pro on the Shuffle is a hammered in Piton.
