Details
(1) The area, crags, and routes just north of the Twin Sisters are on private land and the landowner recently posted no trespassing notices at the gated road/trail to the area. Any access of these areas and routes is trespassing. The area was closed by the landowner due to trespassing, illegal camping, fires & trash, and disregard of owner's privacy.
Please be respectful of the land owner's wishes and do not climb or hike here until further notice. This includes White Lightning, Skinner Roof, Weather Wall, Yellow Wall, Larry's Annihilation, Needle Rock, Mississippi Fred's, and Secret Tom's. Park officials and CRAG are working to regain access to this valuable climbing resource. Be patient and check back for updates.

Description
This is a very short off-width with room to do maybe one or two jams before topping out onto your stomach under a roof that juts out over the crack. You probably don't really have to do any jams if you don't want to. You could try to pull the roof above the top-out ledge I guess, but didn't look particularly doable and definitely would be sketchy if you tried.
For extra fun, slither on your belly through the gap between the roof and the rock you're on to down-climb around the corner to the right of where you start.
This problem is super short and kind of dumb.
