Description
Lots of slabby moves.
Crux move in upper section is much harder than the rest of the climb.
Would be better if the rock surfaces were well-cleaned.
Start on slabby face between the obvious crack and the inside corner. Up into shallow gully.
warning: The rock on and around this route has not been climbed much yet, and much of the rock is still breakable and loose -- so the belayer and other people should stand far away from underneath the climber.
. . . (Lots of vegetation on this rock as of 2016. Be prepared when climbing to navigate around protruding trees and branches, and dealing with holds slippery with grass, lichen, moss, dirt).

Location
About three feet left from the inside corner at the right end of the main slab. Just right of an obvious slightly left-trending crack.
Rock looks dark because much is covered with moss + lichen.
