> How tricky is the climb up the wall?
Not too tricky. Gear is a bit fiddly but it's there.

> How good is the rest before the roof?
It is extremely good. Remain on the face and stuff your entire forearm underneath a flake. Essentially your forearm will be vertical and your palm will be facing your face. Do not scurry onto the arête to rest, you'll just pump out there.

> What is the move at the lip like?
Once your hands are through the lip, I seem to recall it was necessary to cut loose, get a left heelhook on the left (heelhook is above lip), and rock onto it. Then stand up.

> How good a rest do you get after the lip?
Very easy ground, then scurry upwards and rightwards to a flake thing that offers pro.
