This climb starts on the left hand side of the rock face.  You will see fist crack that angles up and to the left.  This is the start of the climb, and also the crux.  From there, pass through the gully and up the weakness in the rock.  The upper portion of the route is closer to 5.4 and very much choose your own adventure.

My Daily Shame

Got your nuts

This route is just over 1/2 a rope length including rope drag, so plan on having the 2nd follow if leading.  A full length rope should let you do a TR without a problem.

The route follows the vertical crack on right hand side of the wall (to the right of My Daily Shame).  Head up about 20 feet until you hit a "nose".  This is the crux of the climb.  From there, head up and to the left following the weakness in the rock.

An easier variation (at the cost of extra rope drag and some potential loose rock) is to go under the nose and to the right and meet backup up with the main route.  Along with the rope drag, be careful as a section of loose rock can be found.

As you get towards the top, follow a crack running up lighter color rock to a great belay.
