Description 

This route follows the corner between Emerald Epitaph and Problem Child. One tough move off the deck places you on an easy ramp that brings you to the top out, a hand sized crack that goes over the bulge. This route felt easier than 5.8 to me (5.6 maybe).

Protection 

Although you could get by finding small placements, a few medium to large cams will protect the route well. Set up a TR with a few large cams in the crack on the rim.
