Description A route that is a shave better quality than its neighbor, 'Candy-O.' That is a measured (read: backhanded) compliment at best. Too bad I can't offer some praise of some sort, but it is what it is. Start a few meters left of 'Candy-O' below and hanging, right-facing corner and climb up and into that corner, over a bulge and up and left past an occasional gear placement.
Location At the left hand edge of the Lower Ramp, the wall goes vertical behind a small, twisted tree. There is an inset formed by 2 hanging dihedrals, with the left-facing one nearest the ramp being 'Candy-O' and the right-facing one 2 meters away in opposition being 'Lemon Line.' 'Tiny Line is just left of these two and follows the straight and thin, vertical cracks up the wall to where it becomes low angle.
Protection A few nuts and cams, better pro and better rock than 'Candy-O' and shares the belay and retreat.
