Description Suggest change

Traverse in from the right. Climb the arete to the top.

Bouldery start to a couple of footwork and balance intensive reaches. From about mid-2/3's height the difficulty decreases substantially.

Other guides say this climb starts on the left of the arete. This would involve a very hard move or two.

Location Suggest change

Climb the obvious left arete of the main face 15 feet left of the start to Tennessee.

Protection Suggest change

Horizontals for pro. Bolt anchor. 

Unless you're quite bold, sussing the moves and gear on TR before leading is a good idea. On lead you'll have to climb through the hardest physical moves up to a height of 15-20ft without any pro over a very bad rocky landing. There is a helpful, but fairly blind placement once the climbing slabs out that may also be worth sussing. From about mid-height the climbing / gear options become fairly safe.
