Description
This is a line that draws the eye as you look at the left end of the east face. It currently is a toprope and should probably stay that way due to the proximity to the hiking trail.
Go up the right side of the slightly overhanging face. There is a crux about 1/3 the way up. The rock is friable in spots.
There are probably at least 2 other possible lines/variation on this narrow face to the left which will probably be a bit harder.
We just gave a name to it in honor of a pet rodent. Obviously, this may have been done previously, but clearing out some modest-sized fragile flakes above muddies the waters. If you have info about this climb, please let me know, and I'll update it.
Protection
This is a bit of a convoluted top rope setup. After leading Unemployment Line, you can set directionals up top on somewhat questionable rock that is improved with the redundancy. You can get a #3.5 Camalot about 20' back, #3 & #4 Camalots in a pocket on the left (below the top) about 8' back, #0.5 & #1 in a crack near the lip, a #9 hex in a slot about 10' back. A bunch of slings help.
