Description
This route is nice addition if one has done Wilted Flower Children. A short quality finger crack leads to standing on the upper section of the ledge with the belay for Popular Mechanics. From here move right onto the face leads to a wild series of arete moves almost like an easier (and shorter) Good Housekeeping.
The line is somewhat disjointed but both sections are quite fun.

Location
From the top of Wilted Flower Children, move the belay left about 20 feet to a huge block with an obvious finger crack.
A 60m rope will get you to the ground from the top of the climb (skipping the anchor atop Wilted Flower Children).
