Description
Thoughtful "outdoor" moves.
Up the wide crack. When reach the overhang near the top, instead of continuing up the crack on its left side, step right across and up its right side.
Variation - easier: Finish directly up the crack.
warning: The rock on and around this route has not been climbed much yet, and much of the rock is still breakable and loose -- so the belayer and other people should stand far away from underneath the climber - (and if possible, behind a large tree).
. . . (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
Obvious gully / wide crack in the middle of this sector which goes up to an overhang on its right. About 25 feet left of white tree. The base of the cliff comes uphill steeply from its left, and goes gentler uphill to its right.
