3 out of 5 stars "Not Too Soft" variation

Marla and David McNeely were here recently and said they did this, so I tried it. This is the arete between "Goldilocks" and "Creative Germs" and the game is to not get on the easy "Goldilocks" face. Start with the vertical crack, up to the ledge, back left to climb the two points, finish to the top of the oblong block below the anchor. Short, varied, fun.
