Sit start and climb the arete to a bad sloper with a seam which you can heel hook on a hold just below, reach a good hold (Crux) and top out. Supposedly a V4 in Bay Area Rock but I'm going with the original V5 grade in the Columbia Bouldering book:

Lobster Claw

Oak Arete

Try me

Sit start using the right arete and a low slopey jug for the left. (This is somewhat wider than Lobster Claw, which uses the same right hand.) Proceed up and left through slopers and a very short crack at the top. Top out on the left side of the big bulge at the top.

Slap your way up the slopey arete to a fun last move to a jug.
