Went left too early...
Went left at the first horizontal crack to the bottom of the chimney, made the top section more runout, pretty scary.

Classic J-Tree crack and smearing
More of a right to left ascent. Follow hands crack up to traverse left to chimney. Half way out of chimney, move right onto face and smear to top. Not too many holds up top, trust your shoes!

Classic J-Tree Runout
Nice easy route with good gear until you reach the chimney and then no gear for the 15 to 20 foot runout to top. Bring a #4 C4 to protect traverse to chimney for your second.
