Description
On the edge of the first jutting shelf about 4 feet off the ground there is a nice hold where you start. Traverse left along the shelf until you can mantle on top of it (about where the dirt mound is). The dirt mound is off. After you get on top of the first shelf you can top out following the crag to the right.
Crux: continuously until you get on top of the first shelf
Good: It's a unique route with lots of arm strength, balance, and technique involved.
Bad: Topping out directly seems to be unsafe - once you get on top of the second shelf it is easiest/safest/wisest to shuffle along the crack that goes horizontally to the right and top out at the next crack.
