Description
Up to a steep bulge. Avoid that by reach and step right to a vague notch. Up through that and roughly straight up to finish about ten feet right of an old tree with double angling trunks each about four-to-five inches wide.
warning: Loose rock is still a concern here. Belayer or other members of party should not stand anywhere near underneath the climber.
. . . (Lots of vegetation on this rock as of 2016. Be prepared when climbing to navigate around protruding trees and branches, and dealing with holds slippery with grass, lichen, moss, dirt).

Location
About twenty feet right from below obvious tree with a round bulge at bottom of its trunk, about ten feet up in midst of left-side face of Dave's Wall sector -- down a slope below left from the eighteen-inch-wide rock ledge base which is directly below the tree.

Protection
To set up Top-Rope, see Description of Dave's Wall area.
It's likely easier to reach a good top anchor by finding a way down below top of cliff like thirty to fifty feet west from top of this route.
Protection for Trad leading is unknown and likely inadequate.
