Necessary Scruffness

Description

Hard to tell at a glance if this is a 5.5 or a 5.8. The angles and placement of holds keeps one guessing a bit. I find it to have a pleasant awkwardness to it. Jam, smear, grab and grovel up the initial corner to a dirt ledge. Then work your way up the crack boulder problem above. Finish on the right on top of the hand crack and scamper up to the tree anchor. When you are done with the climb you may run the rope as for a sport route and lower from the double steel rings. 

Location

Just to the right of the birch tree growing out of the cliff (the route Little Tree) around the corner there is a right angling, right facing cracked-corner. That's the route. 

Protection

Trad to a tree anchor with 2 steel rings. May upgrade the anchor if people like the route.
