This is a little route with a bit of variety that is on the shady wall to the right of the Goofy Spire.  It may have been climbed previously.  If so, I can update the name & first ascent information.

Start up the obvious, right-facing dihedral/chimney. At times, you can move right onto the face.  There are loose blocks in the chimney that seemed too risky to launch given the biking/walking trail and road below.  Above the top of the chimney, you can place a yellow Alien and downclimb a bit to walk across the big, hollow flake.  Angle slightly right.  Finish up the obvious right-facing dihedral to the crag's top.  You can belay off a large tree.

This is the only Goofy route listed in "5.10" and "

High Over Boulder

."  Ament states that this is an old route, possibly done in the '60s.  Today, it may seem harder than Ament's rating of 5.5.  In 1972, I led up the obvious chimney, then, near its top, diagonaled left, over an overhang and up a short left-slanting crack, to the actual summit. This made the finish more difficult (5.8?) and interesting than continuing up and rightish, to the top of the ugly chimney.

Climb a sort of chimney, and continue up the prominent, left-facing dihedral on the narrow east face.  I led Jay Mather up this in 1972.  It seemed like 5.7 at the time, but that was an old-school rating.  I have never heard of anyone climbing this, before or since.  Until now, I'm not aware of any publication of this route's existence.  I thought it was a good climb.
