Oh Rats! area. I noticed that Swartling/Mayer 3rd ed. says route #3 starts "left of the corner", and diagram 4W on page 235 shows it there, too. I don't think it gets climbed much because the Oh Rats! route to the 2nd ledge is more interesting.
Standing near the top of the Meat Grinder offers a nice view of the top of Oh Rats!. The 5.3 climbing of Meat Grinder actually stops at this level but Swartling/Mayer #6 is a 5.5 continuation to the top in this narrow chimney.

Oh Rats! and its harder variation directly over the roof. Meat Grinder is tucked into the chimney hidden on the right.
