It is a short verticle, right-facing corner which leads into a long horizontal roof with a small undercling crack.

Begin 10 feet left of the cedar tree, which is in front of the cave below Captain Crunch.  Move up and right to find good holds and pro.  Make the sustained moves up the severely overhanging traverse to a small ledge.  Right side of the ledge you will find a bolt.  Move up on more sustained moves to a stance just right of the Captain Crunch start.

Start Captian Crunch and then move out off the ramp up onto the face where the bolts begin.  The thin face moves are nice.

Climb the gully to the right of Second Hand.  Will lead you to the Aerosmith belay.  Good moderate.

Climbs a clean short finger crack or the corner to the left of 'the Y'.

Climbing the lower slab section is the real crux.  Some thin moves on small gear, then the crack opens back up and leads to a belay stance in the corner (mid to large gear), then up the chimney section up and exit right.

Take the low-angle corner left of Noname up to a ledge below a blank wall, 10 feet up, traverse right to easy rock.

Left of the Y, start off on easy climbing with good edges.  Then look right for the big hueco pocket that you will traverse over to (crux).  Then good face holds with a few laybacks of the crack above lead into the slab section.  Take it straight up for the extra spice of the run out face moves, or the easier line keeps to the crack stepping up on the final ledges.

Climb the super easy right most ramp up to a short roof section and belay in the boulders up top.

Climb to a 2 bolt stance starting near the Aerosmith landing.  Climb 20' up and right to find the hidden bolt.  Use a long draw or sling to limit rope drag.  Move sharply to the left using thin ledges to avoid the steep overhangs to gain the upper crack.  Follow the steep and exposed crack to the top.

This is an alternative pitch-2 of Arrowsmith. Here's the name sake: 

  "Arrowsmith" looks like a question mark '?'. Its P1 straight and its P2 curled. "The Y" is an alternative P1 of "Arrowsmith". Together they form an upside-down lowercase 'y': Lowercase because their P2 is curled. "Capital Y" as an alternative P2 is straight up: Thus making an upside-down capital 'Y'. You'll need to look at the topo to make sense of the name. To get there, climb P1 of Arrowsmith or The Y. Belay. Then instead of the traditional P2 where you start by traverse right. You'd climb straight up and slightly to the left along a crack system 25ft to a triangular cove roomy enough to lie down. From the cove, you continue 35ft straight up and slightly to the left along the cracks -- this time you'll see two cracks leading to the top and they are about 5ft apart. Follow either crack. Once on the top and on the flat ground, walk back 15ft to wrap your rope around any big boulders -- that's your top anchor. Belay.

Broken corner 25 feet left of 'Tight Rope'.  Climb up black rock 20 feet into a corner and follow it or the crack to the top.

Great climb with some nice friction opportunities.  Sometimes you can even get in a little chimneying in.

Climb the main ramp using gear and then move up the face following the bolts. The crux is just past the 2nd bolt in my opinion.  For top roping I suggest using the middle balcony to belay instead of the lower section, a much better view too.

Scramble 20 into the first gully, around 150 feet left of LTD.  Climb the short chimney up the right side to a large ledge.  Above, you'll find an arching crack that ends below a steep headwall where you traverse let into a yellow corner with some loose rock up to the top.

Very exposed and scary start. Hand traversing from right to left across a steep wall to the start of the crack. Get your #1 TCU in and then start up the funky crack. More face climbing than crack.

To reach the start.  Either climb Love Potion, Dream Landscape, Funky Finger Crack, or the start of Leaning Tower Direct and traverse over to the belay station.  Then climb up under the roof and clip the upgraded bolts.  Awesome exposure.  1st bolt is hidden and can be difficult to see.  A bit loose, but it looks worse than it is.

This takes the direct line to the first belay station for Neckline.  Start between Arrowsmith and Funky Finger Crack.

Some really good lines go up the centerpiece of the Narrows.  With it's signature diving board formation, it is easy to recognize.
