Description:
Find a massive right-facing corner that is about 10 feet right of a roof that is about 10 feet off the ground. Climb the crack that is right of the corner to a ledge. The climb the face right of a short, small arrete. After that, either head straight up to the anchor or climb the easier-than-it-looks squeeze chimney on the left (the bolt below the anchor can be clipped from the chimney).

Classic climbing to a somewhat awkward and confusing finish. Great rests.

This is a superb route except for the end where you can't decide whether to go right or left. Go left. Use the wide crack and finish it up.

Unclear finish
straight seems too hard for 10c. The offwidth makes it seem more like 10b.
