Description
This is a fun short climb that is a good warm-up for some of the 5.10s in the area. It is located immediately right of the North Face Apron on a small exfoliation pedestal. The Reid guide topo incorrectly shows it starting 200ft to the right of Tears of Joy. Its actually only like 40ft to the right. It has mostly easy climbing on big edges past 4 bolts with a distinct crux at the very end. It felt a little stout for 5.8, but its still the easiest thing in the area. It shares an anchor with Ennui (11a) to the right.
