A strikingly aesthetic dihedral which begs to be climbed. Start off the large flat boulder at the base and a decent hold for the first clip. Enjoy the hold because its the last one of any substance you'll get for the rest of the route.  Incredibly desperate stemming on almost non existent holds in a delicate dance of friction and calculated movement is all that will hold you to this wall.  Much more difficult than it looks, and it looks impossible.

Step off a flat base rock and over the void below. A cryptic series of powerful stemming and big reaches across the face gets you into the shallow corner where you get your first rest and first look at the vertical terrain above. Climb past several bolts getting you over a small bulge and into the pocketed face above. Move slow and calculated as you negotiate across the shallow corner system above and save some juice for the top out.

A complete oddity, this route is overhanging the entire way but has just enough big holds and decent rests to keep the grade much lower than what it looks like.  The features on this route climb more like limestone tufas than Rhyolite. Very strange, but wild, overhanging and excellent rock.
