Get a high 3-4 inch piece and muscle through the roof (crux 2). Wander up an left to the big belay tree.Descent Options:

Tricky
Big reach for a shorty. That said, you are going for huge jugs. Excellent gear throughout.

Very fun and interesting route
It did feel harder than a 9. Very long reach for this shorty. Not an obvious way through the crux.

Awkward.
This is one of the harder 9's I have done, with a couple cruxy awkward moves. The rest is super easy. We also found a shedded copperhead skin, so I was careful not to jam any cracks after that :)
