Description
Pitch 1, 30m, 5.10a - Climb between the 30' broken pillar and the wall it is leaning against. Continue up through blocky steps and on to a low angle section leading to a thin crack as the wall gets steeper. The crux is the thin portion of the crack below the belay ledge. Most of the climbing is 5.8-5.9 otherwise.
Pitch 2, 25m, 5.10a - Climb the thin crack that splits the green lichen wall. Step left at the ledge and finish up a short hand crack to the top. This pitch is sustained with funky finger jamming.

Location
Looking at the cliff from a distance this route climbs to the highest point. It is located on the left end of the center wall and starts where a 30' broken column is leaning against the main wall. A good foot path can be walked to the base of the route.
The second pitch is a thin looking crack which splits a green lichen face. The crack looks like it would be harder than the grade when viewed from the ground.
Protection
The descent is convoluted any way you go (would be nice to have a bolted anchor). Next anchor to your right is single bolt and piton, 3 raps with 60m, 2 with 70m rope. next anchor right is MX, 70m rope rap to ledge. Ed's Jam is the same, but there is a newer mid way anchor, can rap to ground.
