Description Suggest change

Climb the corner. Pass the pine tree and pull the bulge to the top.

The book rates it at 5.5. It's every bit as difficult as Front C so I'd put it at 5.6. Definitely a fun little route worth doing if you're there. Take a camera up with you as the top of the climb affords one of the best views of the South Peak East Face.

Location Suggest change

This is the large right-facing corner on the left end of the ledge atop Lichen or Leave It and Helter Skelter.

Protection Suggest change

Standard trad rack. Rap/belay anchor at the top.  The anchors were not put in for this climb.  They're there for Lichening Bolt, though they do make the descent from Bear's Delight a zillion times easier than topping out and walking off this part of the crag.
