Broke the curse
After 7 years of struggle, and then 15 years unintended "retirement," I returned to lead climbing and led my first 5.7.
Great climb, but if you want to make it a 2-pitch ascent, don't stop on the first grassy shelf. The ants in the grass are horrible and relentless. There is another good spot about 10 feet above.

Nice Climb, Not the Best for Beginners
The line leading off of Wasp Flake is fairly obvious and begins on some easier rock that leads into a steep slab section. I placed gear to the left before I began climbing this section. The route leads up over a ledge near some trees and follows the rock up to the top.
