Description:
A lot of options. Face climb, or start in cave and chimney to stem to face. Joins Natural Light route on third bolt. Easy to toprope after Natural Light--You need some 10 ft runners to get over edge. Watch edges on all parts of the crag--some are sharp. Cave below is great place to keep food and beverages cool, even on a hot day.Descent Options:

Top Rope ascent by:
Pretty wild climbing.
Jeez, Chimneyed a few feet, stemmed, liebacked, sidepull, underclinged it--a lot of diverse climbing for 25-30 ft! Intersects Natural Light on left below the crack or you can try to pull the small roof. I climbed Natural Light first and set a toprope with 10 ft. runners. Although the rock is super hard, it is also brittle--so I wasn't too keen leading it with pro. Also, many of the flakes can be super sharp.
