Description
This is an enjoyable longer route that ends well on a slightly overhanging prow with good exposure.
Start with blocky step-ups, and follow bolt line through easier terrain on Lemon-like choss (bolts 1-2). Stay right at 3rd bolt and out of crack and vegetated corner following positive holds into steeper, yet still fairly moderate terrain (bolts 4-6). Join a slightly overhanging arete or prow, and stay on the thing, finding the crux just above the roof (bolts 7-9). This has cool positioning up top with a Lemonesque sequence that gets easier the more you climb it.
This route is fresh, so expect a bit of dirt on the ledges for the next year or so. It has fairly decent rock, with the best of it on the top half of this longer pitch.

Location
It is visible from the Dog Gully approach as you descend to the creek... just right of the Chucky Bill buttress.
