Red Point ascent by:
More cool than jerk
The route description is wrong- above the block is a ledge, about two feet wide. Instead of going up and right here, like it says, the route traverses left to the end of the ledge and up a shallow corner, then on to a blunt arete. Fun moderate.

watch for PI!
a little poison ivy to start the route, but can be avoided easily. Exiting the upper seam was interesting for 5.6 climbing. Seemed more 5.7ish to me...
