Description 

To the right of Nine Minus there is dirt/rock abutment projecting out from the face. To start the climb move up and around this to the right to the rounded low angle corner above. Nice, small face hold slab climbing leads up for about 25 ft. Most reverse the route at this point but it is possible to continue on up easier munge climbing 30 more feet to the top. I would give this climb more stars if it was longer.

Protection 

Not much here for leading but it's so short most wouldn't bother. The top rope set-up works best with very long runners to tie-off some trees a ways back from the edge. This allows for doing virtually all the Moldy Buttress routes with little adjustment.
