Flame and I built the bottom anchor with 2 BD#.5s and 1 BD#.75. Careful of faffing the rope into the water. We tied off a rappel line, then brought down a rope to lead the route. For top, we used a BD#1 and slung a tree about 15 feet away from the route.

High foot short person beta?
My first North Shore lead of the season - gotta get those spring Palisade spooks out of my system
The starting "ledge". About 10 ft off the water, where the crack pinches down to almost nothing.
A less sexy photo of the route from the start.
