This is an excellent route for children and beginning climbers. Variation: Instead liebacking up the flake, head straight up the face of the flake. This variation is rated 5.6.

Location

The start is the left side of the obvious flake. To setup of a TR, head around the left side of the face and scramble up some boulders to the top.
