Yeah, good beta, that first piece will take a small tri-cam too. The crux above is just reachy. Reach up and find the positive holds.

Puckered Starfish is the pose to take when you send it.

5.7/5.8 start just to the right of the tree in the picture. First bolt is a ways up but can protect that section with a 0.5 (purple) c4 cam in the diagonal crack. Then about 2 moves on straight up terrain on fingertip edges.
