Description:
This climbs a prominent arch formed by some overhangs. Start on the right side and trend right following the [path of least resistance. Exit right to a ledge near the top of the Arch. The rest of the climb is lower quality wandering up the brushy face above. From GT ledge, gain upper face through a notch in overhang. Climb straight up to roof. Exit/pull roof via crack on the left. Very fun.Descent Options:
Rap off of slings and rap rings on pine tree or use bolted rappel route located to the right from top out.

Forgot how fun this climb is
This is a super fun climb that looks improbable from the ground (re: rating). It's all there and it's super duper fun.

Wholesome fun
Nice climb, a little disorienting coming out from under the roof as you are less climbing and more gingerly, cramped-ly stepping sideways. DON'T place pro as soon as you exit the roof as that will make your second's traverse unsafe. Solid protection. I only climbed to the first rap station (a few feet past the roof).
