Details
Per Kai Bouwman: the daily CO 7 highway closure/delay access issue is no longer a problem according to CDOT the construction finished as of Nov. 11, 2022.
From CDOT: Colorado Highway 7 is closed daily from MP 23-29.5. Motorists can only travel through the area between 6-8 am and 4-7 pm. During these timeframes, pilot cars will lead alternating one-way travel. Drivers should plan for delays, and this schedule will remain in place through Memorial Day 2022.

Description
Climb through a few ledges, ending up above the prow itself (this constitutes most of the length of the route). The crux is the thin, bulging left-face, which can easily be skipped by going further left and finishing the last few moves of Enola.
Location
The 2nd-from-left route at The Atoll, just right of Enola, on the south-facing aspect of the prow formation.
Protection
1 naked bolt & 3 bolts with hangers, leading to a 2-bolt anchor shared with Enola. Some bolts may be out of immediate reach for diminutive climbers.
The anchor bolts are on the horizontal surface atop the formation & can cause rope drag. Walkoff to the left & down a path to the creek-side.
(PG-13 only because the first hanger has been removed and a moderate move precedes the 2nd bolt.)
