Description
Nice climbing if want to practice slopy feet with no handholds.
A bit easier if use the tree to get off the ground, and stop just before topping out. More interesting to not use tree and finish with feet up on top.
Start just left of big tree which is about ten feet right from the obvious wide gully. Up the face toward the top of the arete rising from left. Join the final section of the arete and finish on its top.
warning: Loose rock is still a concern here. Belayer or other members of party should not stand anywhere near underneath the climber.

Location
About ten feet right slightly downhill from the obvious wide gully (the route "Dojo top-bottom Access") between sector Dime Store and sector God Jam, by big healthly tree.

Protection
Top-Roping: Long static line from natural protection is obvious way to set up top. Careful to select anchor point so to avoid having a falling climber swing sideways left off the arete.
For more ideas how to set up Top-Rope, see description of the Dime Store sector just left of this.
Lead? Protection for Trad leading is unknown and likely inadequate.
