Red Point ascent by:
Not pleasant
Easy climbing to the roof, crux is pulling up and over using small holds to a generous ledge. The ledge was *dirty*, and I was unexpectedly spat off. Even with ideal conditions, the route is very short and not a whole lot of fun.
Be very alert regarding the bolt placements and rope position -- the bolt just over the roof is up and to the left of the previous bolt by about four or five feet, and a fall at the crux can easily get your heel caught behind the rope.

Not bad once I figured out the move to get over the roof (crux).
