An east-facing, clean, crisp dihedral and most northerly of the three routes on this outcropping.  Shares a common platform staging area with 5.7 Book.  Sustained 10a moves make up most of this stellar line, with a somewhat desperate pinched-down crux and a few face moves thrown in for variety up higher.

Cat Scratch Fever

5.7 Book

5.8 Hand Crack

An east-facing blocky dihedral starts right off the sloping platform and offers a variety of moves up to a spacious belay ledge atop the "book."  The start is one of the more committing sections.

Starts on the face of the outermost "book."  Several cracks split this face, but the most obvious line allows you to start at the very bottom of the book, climb up ~30-40 feet until the crack widens and a small ramp appears across the face to the left.  Traverse this way on face moves to gain access to another crack which leads to the top.  Seriously good sustained 5.8 most of the way.
