Description:
Right leaning fragile flake to the right of Happy Face. Locker jams lead to a pin then out right under a fragile undercling, then back left to the anchors. Watch the rope when traversing back left. It is easy to get it stuck in the flake. Avoid this by placing long slings under the flake, then placing a piece up high (.5") before traversing out left to the anchors.

I thought the first 10 feet was hardest.
The thin flake is better than it looks from the ground. Take a few yellow aliens.

cool route

Followed my strong partner on this one. Mental crux was the little traverse to the right. Hope to lead this one soon. Update: (04/30/16) got the red point. (apologies for fixing a small cam near the top).

Short and sweet
Second time on this one for me. Not hard but don't use the piton or put a long sling on it to prevent ropedrag. Watch behind you to make sure your rope doesn't get threaded under the flake behind you. Its a pain to undercling with one hand and flip the rope with the other.

Awesome
Great line, crux is getting into the crack at the bottom. A little longer and it would be full on classic.
