The route trends up and to left. The first 3 bolts follow edges and some hidden pockets. You then access a vertical crack and there are gear placements for protection. The move towards the 4th bolt is along a horizontal seam. You then gain another vertical crack that has spots for gear placements.

Climb up the corner and exit the roof to the left. The bolt protects the roof. Follow the cracks up and to the right to the anchor.

Climb easy ground to a nice left facing dihedral.  Stem, layback, or crack climb your way up.  Pull a small roof (crux) 3/4 of the way up and enjoy a nice low angle hand crack to the top.

Start by the tree with a hand crack coming off the ledge, lieback and face climb to the roof, pull the roof move (careful of the blocks on the right they are loose) and follow bolts to ledge and cold shut.  2nd pitch (you can link the 2) follow bolts up through seams and grooves to rap bolt anchor.
