Description Suggest change

There are three options to start:

Top Flight start: there was once a ladder below "Get off the Cart and Climb" that "Get off the Cart and Climb" and Top Flight used to get past the nearly blank start. The ladder is now gone, but you can climb from the ground if you do a powerful little boulder problem (easier if you are tall) into the hole on "Get off the Cart and Climb" and then climb slightly right.

Black Nasty start: this is the "direct" line on Top Flight. Stickclip the black hanger to the right, boink up to where the holds start, and climb straight up. Traditionally you only boink until your right hand is in a bad diagonal pocket and do a hard move to good holds to start. There was once a stool to access the start holds, but it has unfortunately been destroyed.

Burt and Ernie's start: do the initial boulder problem of Burt and Ernie’s, and then traverse left into Top Flight. This is the best start in my opinion.

After the starting shenanigans, climb up fun 5.11, past a little runout to the roof. Just under the roof, you'll find a good kneebar rest. A crux getting over the roof puts you on big holds to the anchors.
