Start on a small angular handhold with vertical left face- a few feet from the far left end of the boulder.  Begin traversing right through crimps to the obvious flat sloping feature.  Pop up to the rail, and work through a series of additional crimps on the larger face farther right.  End by exiting up and to the right of the perched rock feature on top of the boulder- up and over the farthest right corner of the wall.  Top of the wall is off for the entire traverse!
