Pinched Rib
Decent short pitch with a short one-move finger lock or layback crux. Can set top rope with larger gear. Climb down to the right for descent, past tree. With Stacy.

Fun, varied route.
Easy climbing with gear in two horizontals to straight forward bolted face climbing, to the crux rib/thin crack. Wish it was longer. One fall at crux. Walk off was a little scary but probably safe by JTree standards.
