Found on the left side of the Vestibule after the second corrider (NW face of the Chapel) on a short face, the right of two bolted routes (the left route is Sunday School - 10c). The moves to the first bolt are a bit bouldery, a stick clip is recommended. A little more sustained than the neighboring route, but still short and bouldery. Fun, one and a half stars.

Four bolts to two bolt anchor. Stick clipping the 1st bolt is recommended. Anchor shared with Sunday School.
The Gillett guide has this as 5.10d, and I thought that about right. However, my partner, Pat, thought the route a sand-bag at 5.10 since the feet are bad in a couple of places. The reach coming off the horrizontal seam is rather long as well. Interesting moves on largely very good stone.
This is my type of climbing here. Hard to reach jugs, the odd shifting of weight, mm mmmm. I do agree that this is harder than 10d though, I'd say bump it up to 11b. Possible ground fall for the first two bolts, stick clip or know your shit.
