Description:
Starts off a stepping stone, but there is an obvious cool bouldering-start extension below the ledge, starting on the left side of the cave, traversing right to the flake and up. The grade for the main route is tentative on one opinion.

a nice surprise...
i had fairly low expectations before developing the route. The moves off the boulder ramp were fun. There's at least 2 variations to the start getting to the 3rd bolt. I like the shallow dihedral direction myself.
I felt like the grade is middle 5.10. I'll go with 5.10b, but that set of boulder moves at the bottom might be harder than that for a 5.10 climber. Hard to tell, it just flows so well to me.
My apologies to the climber if the upper section is still shedding some dirt. I did some heavy cleaning of rotten choss in a horizontal band just under bolt #4. There will continue to be some dirt eroding off the face for a some time despite my efforts.
