After a day at the Creek, I figured Liz was ready for this. (Sorry). I had to yard on a cam to get into the starting crack, the OW was a bit tricky, the big splitter through roof was a real fight (with a fall) and the second roof was wild. A real classic.

Via LB Cracks. Hard!
Shirley and I struggled our way up this route (not cleanly) in 4 pitches. I liked P2 - short chimney to great hands (big). Pitch 4 chimney was exciting. Pitch 3 was enjoyable under the roof and not so much once above (hard and ugly crack IMHO). Nobody around and the drive in was trivial now after the floods I'm guessing (done in high clearance 4X4).
