Was up climbing with my fam on Sunday at Call it Day and saw this crag from the top. Don't recall seeing it in any guidebook.

Can anybody ID this?

Nice looking arete and boulder problem.

A lot of scary black lichen. A bit less on Dancing, and Rhythm. The first bolt on rhythm is incredible high given the black horror show underneath it. Bring some small cams who knows one might hold. IMHO Rhythm and Quest are the two best lines.
