Start at the boulder.  5.4 with and 5.7 without the boulder start. Crux is trusting that the generous holds wont break and send you whipping down onto the single solitary bolt. The holds seem fragile, but nothing broke off.

Unknown bolt

Z-Bop

5.7 face moves to a bolt in center of face.  5.9 moves above the bolt and to the left to get into easily protectable hand crack.    Or.....5.7 face moves on right bulge to move up into the crack bypass the crux.

Great route. Overhanging at times but it’s all there.
