The problem follows a crack running from right to left up to a ledge where you can pull yourself up onto and walk down. The Crux would be the end of the problem due to the height, but the under cling start was surprisingly comfortable. In the photos there is a green route with an alternate ending that is less precarious and easier to top (V1) and the yellow top which has the uncomfortable height (V2+). My friend named the Green top "Log", and I named the Yellow top "Club".

Crux is last move.  Watch for chossy holds.

5.10 crux (last move) can be skipped if you nab the anchors, otherwise 5.9.

Juggy down low.  Steep and crimpy crux near finish. Based on advice from Mike Reardon not to poop in the brownie mix (i.e. make access work for everyone)!

Juggy down low.  Steep and crimpy crux near finish.

You may just need a stiff toe like ole Charlie to climb this great warm-up.  Named after Charlie's unbendable toe action from a rattlesnake bite near Hogback Mtn in '72. Direct start is 5.8, or start a few feet to the right for easier terrain.

For extra cherry, pull mantle move above anchor and launch off for big clean fall!
