Climb up the water-polished dihedral with a wide crack in the corner. Use deep hand jams to get up the first part. Pull the first small roof by jamming above the detached roof that appears to be held in place by a large chock stone. Once at the second roof, either climb around it on huge jugs (lame), or squeeze directly through the gap (if your butt allows it) and be born again! Be conscious of cams skating in the polished, marble-like crack. Please let me know if someone has the FA of this crack so I can update and change the name.

Rebirth

From Here To There

Unnamed 5.10

Unnamed 5.9

Tough bolted sport line through bulges with no anchor at the top. Build a natural anchor at the top.

About 20 feet to the right of "Unnamed 5.9".  Start from the starting ledge of the "Unnamed 5.9" and do a committing traverse right with no pro to gain the finger crack, or start below the ledge and go straight up to the crack (pro may be available for the latter start). Crank through the finger crack (crux) to a good stance. Move right around the arete and up to a large crack/dihedral finish. Belay from top shelf. Climbing between the crux and dihedral is easier than it looks from the ground.

A sort-of-dirty little crack climb, with some crumbly and mossy sections down low.  Protects well, with good stances (maybe a little soft for 5.9, but I left it rated as in the guidebooks).  Too short, but shady in the PM.   Described in Foley (2005:74) and Jackson (2006:57).

Lookout Shelf is a low east-facing cliff that lies below the eastern foot of Mosaic Rock.  Only a smattering of shortish routes are recorded down here, but it gets afternoon shade, and is off the beaten path.
