If you don't want to lead this route (and I wouldn't), it can be toproped from the anchors for "Tearjerker".  Begin by bushwhacking through the small forest that has erupted at the base of this route.  May I recommend the "Fiutt" method of ascending the first moves--the tree has been tested to hold at least 160 pounds.  Bouldery start leads to thin slab.  Long runout between 3rd and 4th bolts gets the R rating.  Runout is on some pretty slabby moves.  Above the slab is another section of hard face climbing up a left-facing corner.  Finally, some more slabby face to the anchors.

Slabby start and some interesting face moves up high

From the old Summit Hut guide: "a steep blank dihedral. Face climb up and right, then back to Jonah's Whale". 

  From Steiger: "A desperate series of well protected moves is found in the initial dihedral; the rest is inconsequential." 

  See EFR's guide for topo photo.

This is not my route, but if you're collecting the whole series you can stop here on the walk in for a warm-up.   

  2 routes leave from this balcony belay (see Beta photo); Hanging Gardens' is on the left skyline, following the cracks, all gear.  A little runout at the top, but the angle drops off and the holds are great.  The anchor bolts have webbing and a single rap' ring.  You may want to bring a few runners to replace the old ones.  (Good shape Nov 2015), or you could rap off the back anchor for A Cryin' and A Humpin'. 

  I'd say that both these routes would favor belaying from the top since it would be tight on the belay stance and the rope would likely be in the way.

The crux is lower on the route. #2 Camalot between 4th and 5th bolt. The runout here is on hard 5.9 slab and a fall here would land you near the base!

Not my route, but I have this beta photo to round out the database.

This is the bolted line on the left side of the face.  It starts about 25' above the base of the formation on a small platform with a tree and some cactus.  

  You may need to replace the rap' anchor webbing. (OK 11/15)

The crux is bolted. Not that great a route, but it gets a star with the bolted finish of "Grief Relief." Finishing on the upper bolted face left of chimney extends this climb to approx. 110ft.
