fun chimney climb
work the chimney up till about the third bolt, then turn and climb the face up. watch your feet as the holds tend to disappear when viewed from above

Hope you got long legs!
Nice route that keeps going up. You have to talk to your belayer if you're leading, since visibility is cut off eventually. Fun to start but once you transition, stay to the left! Don't get sucked into the right and try to go up the small overhang/wedge thinking it's easier!
