Access Issue: Technically Illegal to climb in rock creek, though the land is publicly owned (no private property concerns)
Details
It's against national park rules to climb in Rock Creek Park, so do it at your own risk. Most of the areas are sheltered or more remote, and with clear chalk marks on the rock (as of 2020) it seems that people have been coming to some of these places on and off for years.
Description
6-8 moves total, climbing directly up the center. Start with matched hands on a thin crimp rail with a low left foot. Pull into a match on a better "L" shaped crimp slightly higher, shuffle feet, and stretch up and right to a piece of quartz. After that the last hold is a sharp piece of quarts further up and left, and requires getting feet higher either before or after moving to it, depending on height.
