I found the "Butthole"
This was one of my first lead climbs, I lead it again and didn't remember how to get up at first. There are a couple of variations for sure. Once I figured out you need to finger the butthole to get up to the second bolt. After leading, I toproped it twice to get it smoothly. Large rocks for easy natural anchor or you can build gear anchor.
