Details
Please do not climb on wet rock, especially footholds. If a hold is wet, and you are unsure if it is fragile or not, go climb something dry. Caking a hold in chalk only dries the surface of the rock and does nothing to actually make a hold less friable.
If you use chalk on the rock, brush it off when you are done. If you use tick marks, brush them off when you are done. Wipe your feet off prior to each climbing attempt. Excess chalk and any dirt, leaves, or mud can polish holds over time. Do not drag your pad from one climb to the next (in order to minimize erosion). And most importantly, Leave No Trace. Pick up your trash and place it in the trash cans at the trail head.

Description
Easier the higher you go but don't let that fool you, there are barely any feet options for the beginning so most people muscle up for a few moves.
Begins on a good pocket and decent edge to its right. Make a move straight up to a sloper and then up through an obvious crimp and then to the top on thin slabby terrain. Good luck finding good feet and don't think about trying this problem with high humidity.
