Description:
A classic route with very delicate moves. Begin in the Aerial Book dihedral, but head right after 15 feet or so. Work up to the arete, place a stopper, and swing onto the other side. Move up the arete and then back left onto the main face. Climb up past several bolts to a small stance. Then head left and then up to a belay. The second pitch heads up an left and tackles the roof. It is a short pitch and ends at two bolts. At this point, one can head onto Aeronaut (recommended) or climb up easy ground to the walk off ledge.

Ascent Note
An amazing pitch. It's hard to imagine much better position for what is essentially a one-pitch route, as the first two pitches are easily combined. (although you should then continue with Aeronaut). The stopper placement mentioned in the description has broken off and the beginning of the route is now quite scary (I'd say 10- r/x). I was whigged out after leading this part on my on-sight attempt, and I hung on the first bolt. I then climbed cleanly to the top, but I haven't had the courage to go back for the redpoint yet.
