Less-than-vertical dihedral with gear-eating crack. Belay from the rockseat under the tree. Scramble up 4th class to the route proper. Avoid two loose rocks -- one in the crack and one out to the right. Follow the crack to the two-ring anchor. 60-meter rope recommended.

I recommend this as an excellent novice lead. The difficult moves for me were in the first 1/2 of the dihedral, and one could sew the crack completely. Also, with the rings on top, it's a very quick route (took us 40 minutes total car to car). Also, one can finish more nicely at the top by heading to the Mosquito Burrito Anchors.

A fun TR to set for novice climbers, or a good climb for beginning leaders. Great stemming stances and excellent nut placements made this easy to sew up.
