Awesome, fun, scary route.
Did this on TR. 2 crux's. 1st is right above the bolt - double crimp to a jug that starts the shelf. Great rest on the shelf - you could lay down and take a nap. 2nd crux is the roof. Not that hard but really exposed and heady. It wold be big swing to fall from there. Great, great route.
