Sweet Marie

I have trouble figuring out where this route goes. Says "start at Cave Fever Alcove up a crack then up left around the face". This almost sounds like the "Hang Ten" variation of "Tigger Patrole"

any thoughts?

John has spiked interest in a joint effort guidebook so I'm trying to go through all the corrections etc.
I want to go to hell... there's probably lots of rock to climb there.

Hi Fred,

"sweet marie" starts on the LEFT side of the cave fever recess. You'll notice an obvious handcrack which is quite seedy. Ascend this for approx. 25 ft. until a traverse left is possible (traversing under a small overhang). You'll then be on a steep butress. Trend up to a nice alcove to belay 5.7ish. A steep position. From here, break left to an exposed situation on beautiful rock. You'll observe several vertical handcracks breaking through to the upper slab section. Follow crack in slab to top ledge below large roof. 200ft.
