RW on the upper crux of Pope on a Rope. A Nice face move than might take a bit of time to figure out, but once you find the holds it goes at about 5.7 / 5.7+ or so, probably height/reach dependent. 5 ft left is significantly easier.

The b"line" of "Pope on a Rope"
The opening slab for Pope on a Rope. Bolt#1 is about 20 ft up. We found no pro at the small overlap below the bolt. Rock, lichen, and the slab's angle are similar to "Dancin" but unlike Dancin fewer bolts have "grown" here. Maybe it needs more sun?!?

RW examines the opening move for "Pope on a Rope". You can just see the "Dancin" slab above the tree (arrow)
RW at the Pope on a Rope belay. We actually climbed to the right, then back left.
