variation... originally, I mistook this slab for Dee's Rival.
I avoided the ledge start, sneaking a couple cams in to the left; eventually, I had to run-out a short section, traversing up & right across the slabby face to a corner system w/ some questionable rock (but some good placements as well). I then continued up another friction slab to the finish shared with Hard-Up. From the blay, I followed Denny's lead right & up through rotten rock & pigeon crap to the top.

Fun second pitch
First 80 feet is 5.4. I'd say the second pitch is around 5.6. Very fun lead with a small amount of exposure at the top.
Make sure when leading you are careful at the top of the first pitch. It is very loose and easy to kick rocks onto your belayer.
Would be a fun free solo!
