Pitch 3 of Mother's Day - after the birth canal, move right onto the face into the wide flared crack. A tree about 30 feet back from the top ledge offers a belay with drag
Pitch 1 variation takes mostly wide gear from 1 to 4. Make sure to pass the first small tree and setup on the ledge above that before setting up your anchor

Pitch 3 after the "birth canal" section. The standard route goes right at the roof. The harder way (the way we unintentionally went) goes straight up.
