Description
This route is not mentioned in any of the guides I found, so feel free to add any relevant info about the route name, rating or FA (edit: thanks for the route name, Rich!). 5.10+ is my best guess at the rating; it felt noticeably harder than the 5.9 to its right, but also a bit easier than the 5.11s lower on the wall.
Cruise up moderate, slabby terrain to some cool jugs at the third bolt. The fourth bolt, which is well-placed over a roof, is attained after a short runout on questionable rock. Figure out how to get your feet over the roof, and crank through some sequential pocket-pulling and crimping to get to the obvious horizontal (crux). A couple more moves, an oddly placed 7th bolt, and an awkward anchor clip finishes off the climb.
Location
The farthest left (i.e., farthest uphill) route on the North Side.
Protection
7 bolts to chains. It should be possible to get to the anchors from the top, should you be so inclined.
