There's a photo line drawing and written description of Startrekkin' in "Climbing California's Fourteeners" by Porcella and Burns. Something the book dosen't tell you: on the last pitch, the splitter crack you've been following up the headwall branches, up and left and also up and right. If you want to climb around .9+, follow it up and left. I've heard that following the other branch, up and right, is around .11 on tiny nuts.
Good Climbing!

Startrekkin' is the climb on the cover of the ST High Sierra guidebook.
But the route isn't included in the book itself.
