Start by climbing up some strange wavy rock features that provide good pinches or sidepulls. The first bolt is about 15 feet up or so but the climbing is easy. Gain a ledge and now the real climbing begins. Two more bolts get you to the crux which you'll have to commit to before being able to clip the final bolt.

Travail Buttress

Knife Fight

Tomahawk

Follow three bolts of 5.10 on the lower section, using good edges and a slopey arete. From the break with the overhanging upper block, move right to match a gaston/pocket, right again to a large sloping edge, then make a left-hand throw to a shallow pocket. A final, sinker pocket awaits just below the anchors.

Some may be tempted to continue up the left arete from the break on the upper block, which is heinously crumbly, was not cleaned at all, and is not recommended.

Mini route that climbs well. Pretty juggy with no real crux, but nicely steep for it's length.
