Pitch 1. Start to the right of the lichen streak and work left. At least 2 good tricam placements on the way across. I found that traversing beneath the belay ledge and then moving up directly at the left end was secure and had good feet

View of the line from top out. The bolted anchors are just past the bulge on the right. The anchors were a bit rusty, and hard to reach from the top. I recommend building an anchor on the trees above.
My anchor a toprope solo session. I used two tree right in the middle of the lookout point.
Nice big belay ledge at the top of the 3rd pitch. 4th pitch about 10 feet behind. Start is near the bushes.
