Description:
Walk about 70 ft. right of Golden Locks, cross over another fallen tree, and start under the roof right off the trail. Climb up the corner under the roof and work right to a ledge with a tree (avoid placing gear before the tree due to rope drag). From here climb a perfect corner with great jams that gets steeper as you go. Protect very well just before the blank section with no gear (the crux) for about 20 ft. I have gotten a small nut placed in the middle of the crux, but it is better to continue through without stopping. Pass the crux to a ledge for a rest/ gear and continue to the top through easy climbing. A 60 meter rope will let you rappel to the ground.

finished on Margin of Profit
bottom 15 feet not so nice. Then a really good 5.8 hand crack. Can traverse over and do the last bit of Margin of Profit for an easier but classic finish

Second ascent by:
Good climb, thoroughly consistent route
It will be awhile before I lead this one, but it is well protected if you can take the time to place gear.
