Description
To locate this route first go to Fisticuffs, the obvious splitter hand-to-fist crack on the right side of the Tumbling Rainbow formation.
Looking just back and left, spot a right-facing inset corner, with light-colored rock and loose appearances. There is some shedding on the route, but all-in-all it is not bad nor dangerous in my opinion.
Climb up this corner to the top and step up behind a cap-stone at the top, fitting easily through the gap (your rope will go here anyway). Go up and left on the ledge above and belay at the base of Tales Of Brave Ulysses (and then climb that route) or escape as for Fisticuffs.
