The smaller flake under the larger flake seems weak. Recommend avoid weighting. Flake on the top more solid and makes a nice ledge.

Large ledge to the right of the top makes a nice ledge to stem up from or stage climber for rappel. Avoid weighting the smaller flake underneath as it felt weak.
Block under the nose. Did not dislodge but seemed hollow, avoided the section under the nose.

View of the dihedral towards the top of the climb, viewed from the top.
A view from the North side across the footbridge
view of the inside dihedral and right side of the arete going up. fun easy moves and pretty rock and views.
View of the lower flake under the right ledge. Be cautious of this flake as it seemed weak. The belay ledge belay has space to the left and would be out of the way of the flake.
The diving board above made for a nice top-managed setup with hotpoint for direct belay and separate rap lines. Good space up there for bringing climbers into system and staging.
Sections to the right would be a fun climb also. Harder and not cleaned. Use caution for larger rocks above and on nose.
