Description Suggest change

This was done solo so please forgive the poor beta. I wondered back and forth chasing the best and funnest looking features on the far north side of Sumac Point. No signs of previous travel, but with the relative ease it could have easily been done 60 years ago. 

Either scramble around or climb one of the many shattered, left leaning cracks to the major ledge. From here make your way to the biggest tree that sits under the best rock. Climb lots of okay rock in cracks and face. Mostly 5.7 climbing with a move or two of 5.9 on the whole line. A left arching hand crack near the top is a pure joy. After about 500ft of climbing reach a false summit. A grueling 4th/5th class hike reaches the true summit.
