P1, 17, nice climbing right off the anchor on well featured slabby terrain. P2, 16, crux at the small roof. P3, 19 shortest pitch. Circle the stacked blocks at the base of the overhanging face. Two or three steep moves on the face (V1/2ish?), then easy slab climbing to the last anchors.Descent Options:

Red Point ascent by:
bloody fun route
The first two pitches are just good all around fun. The last pitch gives it that last little bit of a challenge and exposure that is the cherry on top!
